What media bias?

Oh...that media bias...

While the editorial page of The Wall Street Journal is conservative, the newspaper's news pages are liberal, even more liberal than The New York Times. The Drudge Report may have a right-wing reputation, but it leans left. Coverage by public television and radio is conservative compared to the rest of the mainstream media. Meanwhile, almost all major media outlets tilt to the left.

Really no surprises...other than that NPR may not be as liberal as you may think.

The whole media bias issue is a bit passe. The internet and talk radio have allowed us to get the message out as needed. The neocons have Fox News. It hardly matters anymore that the elite media is liberal. We have what we need.

I actually think media SHOULD be biased. It should just be honest it.
