Since it is politically important to point out inequalities, how should the media approach the topic when it involves the media?

ABOLISH THE FCC and recover our rights to freedom of speech!!

You seem to have gotten the title wrong.
Actual title:

“Republicans media bias claims boosted by scarcity of right-leaning journalists”

You seem to have listed yourself as the author, rather than Kelly Riddell.

How do you suppose all that happened?

Fire 43% and hire conservative republicans (if you can find them).

We must have PC Diversity in all things.

Conservatives and Republicans in general have slept for decades, ceding public education, academia, media & Hollywood, even the churches, to the Left and the naval gazers.

What other possible outcome would we expect as the result?

Here we sit. Indoctrination by curriculum and the many teachers union choices and demands have trumped our chances to un-do the damage, by decades. Republicans have not cared.

These imbalances and inequalities are on no ones agenda even today. Addressing institutional indoctrination is on not one of our candidates campaign agenda, nor from their supporters.

Jeb is the indicator that Republicans are helpful in shooting themselves in the foot for generations. Common Core is the public image of I-don’t-care Republicans who must approve of the FUNDAMENTAL TRANSFORMATION of our country. (Tag line works here.)

Freedom of the press was envisioned as a source of objective oversight, intended to provide another means of governing the governors.

Leftist, as with everything they touch, have corrupted the institution of the free objective watch dog press. They targeted the incubation chambers where little baby journalist are hatched, colleges and universities.

I wonder how many journalism professors are registered repubs? My guess zero.

By creating more competition by not funding the existing media.

Instead of “licensing” journalists, why doesn't the RNC demand representatives of all media? If there is an offsetting Conservative force in media, it is in Cyberspace. I nominate Kristinn and Kevin to sit on the panel of inquisitors.

I spoke to one of the editors of my local newspaper about this years ago... back when I was first freeping. Asked why there were ZERO conservatives at the paper he wrote for... his answer was the typical first response of group-think privilege: that there must not be that many qualified conservative writers who had applied.

I laughed and told him the same had been said about blacks and women years ago - - prejudice against those groups used the exact same rationalizations.

All I can say is we need to keep pushing on this - for our sake and theirs. Publishers need to exert pressure - 'news' is a business - not a private club of like minded elites.

At some point these news companies need to think in terms of getting the 'Trump audience' for MORE than just the one or two appearances of Trump... We're out here - a large viable market - ready to buy the stuff advertisers want to sell... wanting a few people who represent our point of view.

Bill Cunningham explains it better than anyone, and I wish EVERY SINGLE GOP CANDIDATE would mention in debates, out loud and right to their faces:

“For Democrats and the media, every game is a home game.”
