Not many replies at all. The article was posted again a few minutes after mine, maybe the comments are going there. I agree it needs play.

Well, it's probably because this is no revelation at all to many here ( and elsewhere ) who have seen bias in the news- and the rest of the "media"- for decades.

I go back to Goldwater... remember the "Daisy" commercial?
The sudden shift that occurred in Vietnam form "the right war at the right time" to "America can't do anything right over there, time to get out!"
The great sea change from "Plucky Little Israel against a Sea of Hostile Arab Nations" to "Oppressor!"

And it's far more widespread, and worse, than merely the news departments-- the entertainment division of "media" tells everybody what they think is cool, what's worthy of scorn and ridicule, what can safely be ignored.
