IMAO: Liberal Media â Now with Cloaking Power!
"So a liberal notices that the media focused way more on economic hard times in the early 80âs than they are with similar unemployment now. Kevin Drum really seems baffled by why the left-wing media which hated Reagan was constantly harping on the bad economic times yet that same media is much more subdued when such a focus would seem critical to their liberal golden child. So Kevin Drum puts on his smart person glasses and tries to figure out that conundrum by meticulously analyzing employment patterns.
Makes me think of a guy who wanders into a forest and is surprised to see so many leaves on the ground. So he carefully analyzes the soil and does spectral analysis on it to see if there is some leaf producing that could explain the phenomenon. And you just want to grab and shake him violently and scream, âLOOK UP IN TREES! WHY WONâT YOU JUST LOOK UP AT THE TREES! WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?! HOW HARD DO YOU HAVE TO WORK TO BE THIS THICK-HEADED! AHHHH!â And then you shake him until the police drag you away.
So why do so many liberals have such a blind eye to the mediaâs left-wing bias; why is it so hard for them to acknowledge the sky is blue? My best guess is that if they admitted the media tilts heavily liberal, then that means their ideas actually get an unfair amount of positive focus and yet are still soundly rejected by the public at large, and thatâs just too bitter a pill to swallow."

The media are supposed to "report the facts in an unbiased fashion". But in the USA, they are actually the media arm of the Leftist propaganda machine. Not good for our future.
lol you shold read an aggregator site sometime and see media from around the world. the US media is right wing. we can't compare it to our preferences that's not apples to apples.
If China announce that 150 million of its poorest would be illegally dropped off on the western/southern/eastern shores, would we vigorously go against this influx in every way?
What if it were 10 million, from Syria, Iran, Yemen, Somalia, etc.? Would we pursue them vigorously?
What makes it more proper if there are 10 million, and they walked across the Mexican border?
