Lifelong Republican here... one of my best friends is a Democrat. I have to
ditto Bruce on the choice of candidates (just switch the party). I do vote for
Joe Lieberman for Senate....only.... I do beleive there is a bias and here is
my case.
1. Almost all of the big college journalism depts are hotbeds of liberal
thought. This is an easily verifiable fact, just look at what passes for
journalism in college newspapers and see the reaction to any conservative editorial
(the very few that ever show up are usually from outside the departments)
2. In order to be percieved as "fighting for the little guy" you have to
be reporting liberal causes, in fact according to the media there are no
conservative causes... after all us Republicans only want to "steal all your money
and give to a few big companies"...
3. Many of the facts that are reported as facts as far as liberal claims
are often later disproven but it is never reported publicly like the original
faulty claims.... do we remember the Swedish study of electromagnetic fields
that was completely discredited? The administrations claims about the WMD's
first looking to be a bad call, now new evidence may prove or add further support
to those claims... heres a stretch... will there be a drum beat in the press
as loud as thier drumbeat against? Let me stick out my neck and say.... no.
I could fill volumns with stuff that has stuck in craw....
