Read The Book!

[set the record straight]

Most reporters are biased in view of their own positions. Hence, they do not report the news but put their own positions forth as th news. Thinking people like a web site such as this for it gives them a platform to present their views as well. The media is losing its hold on the information exchange, for people see it for what it is: left-leaning spin department for the demoncrats. The media, by and large, are the apologists for liberalism. They are in denial and still try to make people think they are objective.

The Globe?....this was in the Bosgton Globe?...obviously last night, as the paper was being put to bed..all the editors were watching the Super Bowl...

or Goldberg's assertion that the media have suppressed the bad news about the harm working mothers allegedly cause to their children - strike me as far less persuasive. Perhaps this is because, in those instances, the biases of the media largely coincide with my own.

Refreshingly candid for a journalist to turn the magnifying glass toward themselves.

Does anyone really doubt that the left wing media gets talking points from the DNC.....EVERY DAY....on every issue.

Most of the talking heads seem too uneducated and lazy to form a real basis for their spewing. It's so much easier to read the blast fax and go on the air pretending to speak the truth.

I think this "story" is an attempt by the Globe to shield itself from the consequences of its own editorial policy. If the only problem with media bias were the natural personal biases of news writers, the Globe would not have suspended their only conservative columnist for 90 days simply for re-using some 4th of July rhetoric that half the columnists in America have used over the years.

The author misses the point.

This is NOT about having a diversity of opinion, except on the op-ed page. It's about keeping opinions OUT of the reportage.

[syriacus]

Overwhelmingly, journalists support abortion rights, affirmative action, and stricter gun control and oppose school prayer and the death penalty.

Except when Muslims want to pray in schools.

And I'd bet NOW and NARAL are pressing their views on abortion, too.

Isn't it called the Roshumun affect. Ten people witness a murder and see ten different stories? The dominant media think there is only one way to view anything, the way their friends would agree with.
