You're posting links to books as sources? Why not just cite the specific arguments in those books? You think I'm going to read an entire book tonight? Come on. I just got done watching the game.

This notion that the media is liberal is just something Republicans like to say whenever the media holds them accountable for something. It's a lazy, baseless retort that that conservatives at the ground level have bought into and eventually started repeating themselves as if it were fact.

When you look at the ownership of media, it is certainly no liberal bunch. The media has become increasingly consolidated by corporations over the years. Not exactly hippies.

It's a myth, Faithful1. The media is about marketing, ratings, and the stock. Nothing more. If anything, they lean right.


I come at you with facts and you come back with unsubstantiated opinion. Nothing new here, except that what little cred you have continues to shrink.

Don't know if you went to college or even high school, but they do have these things called books. These books provide information for learning. Learning is good.

By the way, one of the links was an article, not a whole book. So you could have read it and still watched the Seahawks beat the Patriots. Anyway, they refuted your silly claim that there's no evidence of bias. And the silly "corporate bias" claim I destroyed, so why are you still bringing it up? Do you even know who owns the New York Times? Do you know anything about them?
