Myth Of Liberal Media Bias Destroyed

[The Rabbi]

Because Bush wasn't lying, and the Democrats were saying the same thing he was. Maybe if you weren't stoned 24/7 you would have remembered that.

Hardly a peep out of the liberal media about dennist hastert. Compare him to Jerry sandusky. Jerry's a monster that should never go free for what he did but not nearly the same reaction for a powerful Republican. Liberal media my ass.

Hardly a peep? Its being reported all over. But Hastert has been out of public life for 10 years or more. Sandusky was still employed.

Hardly a peep. And you're right. People probably knew when he stepped down. But not a peep. But Clinton affairs were fair game. You're such sheep.

Its beign reported all over Google and Yahoo.
Clinton was president of the united states. Hardly the same as a washed up speaker of the house who has been out of office over 10 years.

If he were a democrat it'd be a lot different. But we'll never know. We don't have a newt, vetter, Foley, Craig or hastert. Notice it was all these scumbag who went after Clinton? Makes us like the Clinton's.

If you hate them this much they got to be good.

You dont throw out scumbags in scandals. You keep electing them.
If he were a Democrat he'd be hailed as "brave" and "a victim."

The reason Republicans perpetuate the liberal media bias is twofold.

1. The claim that conservatives are under-represented in news reporting allows them to pressure the networks to broadcast more conservative content. It's called "working the refs".

2. If you're going lie about things like Iraq, you need to convince your viewers that they can't trust any other news sources. You don't want your voters to discover that you're full of shit. Consider this: 100% of the Republicans on this message board did not even know that Bush raised the debt ceiling 7 times - moreover, 4 of those times were with a Republican House/Senate. This is the power of Fox news and Limbaugh and Savage and Beck and Levine. They and the Republican party would not be in business if Republican voters trusted non-Republican news sources. This is why they condition their viewers to be afraid of the lame stream media

So very fucking easy to beat the brain dead!

• Crowd roars as Cruz attacks the media
  The Hill ^ | October 28, 2015 | Niall Stanage
  Ted Cruz Rants About Media Bias During CNBC Debate (Watch the video at the link) Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas won some of the biggest cheers of the first segment of the Republican presidential debate Wednesday with a vigorous attack on the media in general, and the CNBC moderators in particular. Cruz, asked about the debt limit, diverted to assert that the questions posed in the first half-hour of the debate "illustrate why the American people don't trust the media. This is not a cage match." The first-term senator went on the paraphrase what he argued were excessively hostile questions...

You're out of touch bro. Liberal media bias was on full display tonight. Be careful, denial can be a dangerous thing.

Myth Of Liberal Media Bias Destroyed As Study Finds Conservatives Dominate Sunday Shows

The Times tried to explain away the distribution as slightly lopsided, but that was just excuse making for a pattern of systemic corporate media conservative bias. Tim Russert is considered the gold standard among Sunday morning hosts, but during his time at Meet The Press, Republican guests outnumbered Democratic guests by a 2-1 margin.

Doesn't matter, study after study shows there is no "liberal bias" -- in fact on fiscal policy and foreign policy it's the opposite. But the Fox Newsies will still cling what their masters tell them.

Dan rather, absolute bias for how many decades??

Bet you're looking forward to "Truth", the new film about Dan Rather and Bush not showing up for duty.

That's a pretty funny article. Doesn't even come close to addressing the bias in gun stories where virtually never are defensive uses reported on, yet every single criminal use is. Add to the the biased reporting of man caused global warming and yes, there is a clear progressive bias. A blind person could see it.

And let's not forget how they are always stirring racial tensions. Every time a black is shot by whitey, they're on there playing the race card. Pathetic.

You mean when Rather knowingly presented false paperwork? That story?

Is the liberal media telling the rest of the country how GOP run Michigan poisoned the citizens of flint with lead? And GOP gov Rick Snyder just apologized.

If those guys blamed Obama for the bp oil spill, why not blame Rick Snyder for what happened in flint?

Where is the media on this? http://www.freep.com/story/news/loc...7/governor-meet-morning-flint-mayor/78402190/

This is what happens when Republican rule

 

[BluesLegend]

Where is the media on this? Flint mayor: Cost of lead fix could hit $1.5 billion

This is what happens when Republican rule

Right the Democrats destroy the place with decades of corruption and in trying to keep it from imploding a mistake is made while the GOP is trying to stave off bankruptcy and you libs got the nerve to point the finger at the GOP? If the Dem idiots were still in charge there wouldn't be any running water.

 

[TooTall]

Anyone claiming there isn't a liberal bias in the media is either lying or stupid.

Because like many lemmings you don't see whats really going on.

How did bush get away with lying us into Iraq if the media is liberal?

The media may be liberal when it wants to be but where its important to the rich it is sensored and conservative.

Did the media say anything when citizens united was passed? A liberal media would have.

Bush lied, people died.

[Mac1958]

The number of conservatives interviewed on Sunday talk shows has absolutely, positively nothing to do with the way news is covered overall.

Holy crap.

What silly, weak, transparent stretch.

Faux News should really be named Strawman News. Their whole schtick is to create nonexistent enemies, make consevatives afraid of them, and then get them riled up to 'defeat' these nonexistent enemies at the polls.

Politics by fear.

Liberal media finds no signs of liberal media bias?

Shocking...

 

[NYcarbineer]

Sorry, but that "study" does not prove its assertion. There is clearly a legit bias in the news media in terms of story selection and placement, opinion shows, and editorialized programming.

Are you really this dense?

He just gave you indisputable proof of GOP biased 'story selection'. Again the chart looks like this:

Can you read that chart?

Oh please on Sunday mornings everyone knows liberals don't watch news shows , hell either they sleep till noon or watching reruns of honey boo boo.

Anyone can read the chart.

Connecting that chart with a meaningful conclusion is another story altogether. The single metric it measures is meaningless on its own in regards to the OP's supposition. The number of Sunday show guests is utterly irrelevant in determining bias within a media outlet. I would bet that the word Obama is uttered more than anything else on FOX but virtually no one anywhere is claiming that they are left wing.
