There is no such thing as liberal media outlets (unless you're wanting to count online outlets such as HuffPo as part of the media).
Do you not get the psychological nature of this debate? Do you not understand the lack of credibility one has in claiming there is not bias in the organizations he happens to agree with idologically?
It's easier to see the bias of a group that is being critical lile Fox, but they aren't trying to deceive anyone into thinking they're something they're not. Beck, Hannity, O'Reily, all openly state they are conservatives. It is hard to see the bias in outlets like CNN, MSNBC because the bias is in what they DON'T say and do. They won't ask this administration tough quesitons. They won't investigate the problems with his programs. The difference between them and Fox is they PRETEND to be these middle of the road, objective, good investigative journalism, organizations.
MSNBC's opinion programming clearly labels itself as such. The difference is that Fox doesn't really have anything that's not opinion programming. They attempt to claim that some shows are opinion and some shows are not, and yet the so-called "news" programming is just as much of a rote repeat of the GOP talking points as the opinion programming is. In fact, there have been several occasions where the "news" shows on Fox have literally read aloud from GOP strategy memos on air and claimed it was "independent research" they had done.
Wuold you consider these programs "opinion" programs?
