Liberal media? This study says otherwise...
- Thread starter ZZZzzzzzzz
- Start date
The reason some on the left do not realize how liberal the media is... is because they are still left of the media. All anyone has to do is watch cnn covering political campaigns.
First cover the dem camdodate give a point then counter point then end with a postive note like even with this problem John Kerry is looking great and gaining votes among the all important independant canidates who work at ski resorts in New hamshire. .
Then cover a republican. With bursting campaign coffers and wide support among uniformed voters this republican is still having trouble getting his upbeat message across because of the rampant and hopeless 4% unemployment caused by the tax cuts and lack of spending on welfare for able bodied people. So while the old white guy may be leading in the polls, there seems to be a change in the wind. Back to you wolf.
Wolf says... one question. There seems to be an umemployed, lesbian, minority, drug user in the background, do you know if she is not going to vote for the republican candiate. Well, Wolf I had ocassion to speak with here just before airtime, she says contrary to all the republican spending and media buys, she is not convinced the economy is improving her job propects. She feels the republican is out of touch and tax cuts hurt the underclass.
Wolf. Well thanks for that inciteful report from the trenches, looks like we are going to see some surprises election day.

Based on your history of posts, I can safely assume you suffer from some form of mental deficiency. I will try again to write in 3rd grade grammer so even a mentally challenged individual will be able to understand. If you have difficulty reading, please find someone who can read this to you.
The Media is 90% owned by the largest GOP contributors. I have posted this information before several times in detail. The owners dictate what the media reports. I will cite the example of Sinclair Broadcasting showing its blatant Kerry propaganda as fact as an example of where neo-commie ownership resulted in direct neo-commie propaganda.
For the following to make sense to you, we must agree on one criteria. The criteria is that in a Capitalistic society, the media is in existence to make money.
The Print Media:
The majority of Neo-commies are illiterate and most can barely read. Therefore, there is no viable "market" selling print media to these individuals. This is the reason why the vast majority of neo-commie print media initiatives fail and lack circulation.
Most print media must cater to the educated masses. Individuals who can actually read and understand the print. It is a fact that when an individual makes the effort to become educated, their world-view becomes more moderate. Therefore radical illogical neo-commie nonesense can not be sold to these individuals. Moderate common-sense news has to be printed to sell. To the average neo-commie inbreed, anything that diverges from their world-view is to be immediately labelled as heresy. This is why most print media is labelled as "liberal" by these illiterates.
The Digital media:
Who make up the majority of the online political blogs? It is the educated moderates again. They can read and write and are computer savvy. Therefore the label that political blogs are "liberal".
Therefore the Radio and TV is the only media left to cater to these illiterate savages.
Dial into any Radio talk show anywhere. Most will cater to illiterates. After all, illiterate neo-commies can not read. But they can listen.
I agree most television is biased. The bias is "FOR" the governments daily propaganda objectives. Not Against. Otherwise some of the television media would have questioned in detail every lie and deceit coming out of this government. The ratings of all the television media has dropped significantly because literate individuals now have access to alternative sources of undiluted news. This leaves only the illiterate inbreed savages as the primary target audience. This is why CNN recently hired Ann Cunter to head his own show. This is why CNN has become more biased towards the illiterate inbreeds views over the past years. This is why much of television has become dumbed down propaganda mouth pieces. Therefore, the bias in television is TOWARDS the neo-commie propaganda. Not against.
If you have difficulty understanding the logic above because of your inability to read, I will understand. I will recommend that Elitetrader add a text to voice feature for individuals like you.
Quote from Haroki:
Again, the fact of who the owners are and who they donate to has no bearing on whether or not the media is bias, for the majority of folks working in media are liberal...
Surely, you must admit that the conservative side of issues are underrepresented on CBS, NBC, ABC, and CNN, right. And if that is true, then there is a bias. How can you deny that?
Forget that we disagree about the issues for right now. I have a side. You have a side. Fine. Is 'my' side, however much you may disagree with it, fairly represented on the big 4??? [

LOL, now you're trying to "prove" liberal bias in the media with a fictitious conversation which never happened. Can you possibly be more pathetic than that?
Especially given the fact that Wolf Blitzer is no liberal by any stretch of imagination:
-Blitzer again accused Democrats -- but not Republicans -- of reaching "early verdict" on Alito nomination
-Blitzer double standard: CNN host suggested Kennedy, but not Frist, was prejudging Alito nomination
-CNN anchors wondered: "How dignified could [a filibuster] be?" and "Will [Alito] get the fair vote that the president has been asking for?"
-CNN's Blitzer spun Cheney's Atta/Prague claims
-Blitzer adopted White House spin on pledge to fire leakers
-CNN's Blitzer left out key fact in discussing Bush Iraq speech
-CNN's Blitzer continued to rely on irrelevant honorable discharge to suggest Bush didn't skip out on Guard duty
-Blitzer defended media coverage of Lewinsky investigation, ignored widespread failings

Some liberal, huh.
Since you missed the 3rd post on this thread, Ill copy/ paste it again!
Liberal Media Evidence
A new poll by the Pew Center proves that the media is as liberal as ever. When will "diversity" mean more conservatives?
by Fred Barnes

THE ARGUMENT over whether the national press is dominated by liberals is over. Since 1962, there have been 11 surveys of the media that sought the political views of hundreds of journalists. In 1971, they were 53 percent liberal, 17 percent conservative. In a 1976 survey of the Washington press corps, it was 59 percent liberal, 18 percent conservative. A 1985 poll of 3,200 reporters found them to be self-identified as 55 percent liberal, 17 percent conservative. In 1996, another survey of Washington journalists pegged the breakdown as 61 percent liberal, 9 percent conservative. Now, the new study by the Pew Research Center for the People and the Press found the national media to be 34 percent liberal and 7 percent conservative.
Over 40-plus years, the only thing that's changed in the media's politics is that many national journalists have now cleverly decided to call themselves moderates. But their actual views haven't changed, the Pew survey showed. Their political beliefs are close to those of self-identified liberals and nowhere near those of conservatives. And the proportion of liberals to conservatives in the press, either 3-to-1 or 4-to-1, has stayed the same. That liberals are dominant is now beyond dispute.
You mean this kind of evidence:
Riiiiiiight, and a possibility that right wingers like Fred Barnes himself instructed by Rove and Mehlman are now calling themselves moderates or liberals escapes your imagination, doesn't it. Go ask O'Reilly, he'll probably tell you that he is a left leaning centrist.
