Veteran CBS correspondent and best-selling author Bernard Goldberg predicts that the liberal media establishment will collapse much like the Berlin Wall.

Dear Santa....

I'd like nothing better than to see the fall of the liberal media but it WON'T happen. How many political liberals have you seen ADMIT they were wrong? One or two? That's abot what you MIGHT see with the liberal media. ALL have too much arrogance and pride. They HATE being WRONG. So it won't happen.

Dear Santa....

Please inform China, N.Korea, Cuba and the communist/socialist/liberal mass media about the Berlin Wall.

Another thought struck me as I posted my other reply. Liberals who read liberal papers etc. DON'T care about reality. They WANT THEIR WAY - the LIBERAL way so they won't want the media to go conservative. They will continue to WANT the liberal lies so as to bolster their own misguided opinion.

Think Susan Sarandon or any of the others will admit they are wrong? Or the pope for that matter? Of course not. It is their will that MUST prevail regardless of truth and reality.

Today's youth are rebelling against the 60's generation.

What's funny is that the Anti-war protesters are almost all old 60's hippies who never grew up trying to reclaim their "glory."

Iraq is not vietnam, we are truly right and they can't stand it.

I'll go with meltdown, and I also need to add that they need to expose themselves at the rapid rate of which they are for a bit longer before they do.

In reality they will just go into hiding as "moderates", and given the propensity for the sheeple to graze unwittingly on commie grasses, we'll need to root these loons out by establishing firm conservatives media agencies.

"They didn’t even call that kid from Marin County, California, who was fighting with the Taliban a traitor. But they called me a traitor." "

Enough said.

I didn't realize I have no heart just because I am a conservative 20-year-old. Thanks for pointing that out.

I agree. I voted for Ronald Reagan twice when I was in my 20s. Was I wrong?

liberal bias is still with us

The Fourth Estate - A First-Class LiabilityThe war in Iraq hasn't even been underway for two weeks, and already some media types have declared the US-led effort an abysmal failure. And judging by the public reaction to these reports--particularly on Internet message boards such as Yahoo! News--a lot of people are swallowing holus bolus the garbage they're being fed by a highly confused, agenda-driven, frighteningly ignorant media.

Media Watch -- 04/01/1989 -- Page One: Reporters First, Americans ... In a future war involving U.S. soldiers what would a TV reporter do if he learned the enemy troops with which he was traveling were about to launch a surprise attack on an American unit? That's just the question Harvard University professor Charles Ogletree Jr, as moderator of PBS' Ethics in America series, posed to ABC anchor Peter Jennings and 60 Minutes correspondent Mike Wallace. Both agreed getting ambush footage for the evening news would come before warning the U.S. troops.

Goldberg said that though he had long been a liberal, he has moved has found himself moving more to the right. He asked the audience if they knew anyone who was a conservative but became a liberal. "It doesn’t happen that way," he noted.

Pat Buchanan, Arianna Huffington, David Brock, Earl Warren, David Souter...

Actually there are quite a few people who radicalize in both directions in mid stream. I have come to the conclusion that intelligence doesn't matter.

You have nobel laureates who are right wing republicans, and left wing democrats. You have people who consider the National Enquirer heavy reading who consider themselves right wing republicans or left wing democrats.

Morality is what distinguishes people... brains don't matter.

Dick Morris, explaining this week why liberals are wrong, used phrases like: "Disconnected from reality,"

Very accurate, IMO. Liberals seem to be oblivious to the changing political climate brought about by 911. Also, people are simply tired of liberal shenanigans like the neverending examination of the Florida election results, obstructing the agenda of a popular president, criticising the progess of the war effort, consistently voting against tax cuts, blocking court nominees in the Senate, bending election rules in New Jersey, and turning funerals into political pep rallies. Their obsessive resentment of Bush may well explain why they are so disconnected from reality.

Dan Rather, told him he was "dead" for revealing Rather’s and CBS News’ leftward bias.

Uh, Dan, Bernie didn't tell me anything many of us have known for years. You are seriously delusional if you think you've hidden your left-wing views.

Thanks for passing on the great link. I am collecting the war media bias threads for preservation on our fairpress.org site and have added it to the list.

Hey everyone...this is already happening. Has the fact that FoxNews beat the stuffing out of CNN (with Fox in far fewer homes) somehow fallen below the radar? Does the fact that right-wing (read: objective) news anchors and moderators consistently beat out the lib-whiners mean nothing? And, don't forget, the younger folks who drive the advertising market are more conservative than ever before (just look at the relatively high percentage of Jews and African Americans under thirty who voted pubbie in 2000).

My prediction: within 5 years the only left wing network will be PBS, and they will start to worry soon.
