Yeah, such terrible stuff that several federal judges have already agreed with me, so ridiculous that the issue is now sitting in the Supreme court... as yet undecided, and that even though the current Supreme court is packed with Big business patsies.

Funny, given CNN's pretty conservative bias. Really all this stuff does is help shift opinion more to the right, giving the illusion that shows like CNN are somehow liberal because they occasionally criticize (rightly or wrongly criticize) those on the right.
Beyond that, one incident just doesn't prove much of anything. To judge bias, you have to look at a pattern. The pattern shown by the media is to favor the "money" people. It really doesn't matter if they are Democrat or Repubs or what. In fact, none of those title really apply except to target a specific candidate .
Exactly! And when Fox criticizes the left, it's to help shift opinions more to the left, giving the illusion that Fox is somehow conservative because they occasionally criticize (rightly or wrongly) those on the left.

"Occasionally"....was that the word you really wanted to use there?

Not to pick sides, because Pelosi did this, but I had a laugh-attack when I found out that Bohener tried to secretly buy and trade a bunch of stock from companies that stood to benefit from Obama Care BEFORE the announcement that the public option was dead. I mean, here's a guy who is constantly berating the president being about as two-faced and politician-y as anyone can be. Anyway, it was mentioned in NEWSEEK about a month ago.

Good point. In my defense, I was sarcastically parotting Player's ridiculous assertion.

MSNBC doesn't touch real conservatism. So your original assertion is completely incorrect.

No actually, you've decided to use a different definition of "liberalism" than is currently en vogue in the United States. This is what you do - you change the definitions and arguments to fit how you would like the discussion to go.

Oh no! I came back on you with your own argument! What are you going to do now?
PLAYER57832 wrote:That you think this is a legitimate comparison speaks volumes. MSNBC is not a liberal organization. It is definitely not truly on the left. I have said this before.

Democracy Now and Alternative Radio are just bringing attention to conservatism
Democracy Now and Alternative Radio don't know what true conservatism is.

Okay, then try these two on for size... you can pick which one you would like to deal with to try to prove that you're not being unbelievably hypocritical:thegreekdog wrote:(1)Democracy Now and Alternative Radio are just bringing attention to conservatism

Let's see. I need to rack my brain here. Would big business be positively or negatively affected by forcing people to purchase insurance. Let's see... hmm... from whom does one purchase health insurance? I think businesses that sell health insurance, right? Would those businesses be classified as big? I wonder about that.
Ooh, I thought of something else I need to think about. Have some companies gotten a free ride? I wonder about that. Because I know that President Obama was in favor of restricting lobbying access to the White House. I wonder how that worked out. Did those companies that got a free ride; did they lobby the president? That would be weird, right? Because Democrats, especially the president, supported the Affordable Care Act out of the goodness of their respective hearts.

Liberal news probably wont report something like that right before the presidential election, because it could hurt Obama somehow, since it happened while he was in charge of law enforcement. Conservative news won't report that because it could hurt Romney. His own family is illegally purchasing guns and running them to their compounds in Mexico.
And the media in the middle doesn't hold anyone's feet to the fire unless its sensationalist.
Is there a left tilt to the media's coverage of the news? If there is, can it be proven? And if it can be proven, can the consequences be quantified in a meaningful way? Acclaimed UCLA Professor of Political Science and Economics, Tim Groseclose, has the startling answers in this new Prager University course. Whatever you do, don't miss his final conclusion.
