There is little liberal left-wing bias in the media today, regardless of what the Republicans claim. In fact, there is a pronounced right-wing conservative bias to the media. Fox News, the Rush Limbaugh show, and 'commentators' such as Ann Coulture and Shawn Hannity brainwash gullible Americans with Republican propaganda every single day. The conservative media is just as dangerous as the Nazi propaganda that was spread in the 1930's. It "reports" information as "fact", when indeed it is nothing more than conservative pabulum being spoon-fed to an unintelligent American culture that has grown up not having to think for themselves, never questioning anything the government of the media says. Unfortunately, these 'dittoheads' contribute to the hatred and bigotry so prevalent in our society, a hatred and bigotry that spreads around the world, which begets more hatred and bigotry, which ultimately results in all the evil, chicanery, and wars that only serve to further promote more evil, chicanery and war.
To further exacerbate the problem, our lethargic media fails to serve as the 'fourth estate" any longer, rarely questioning the government and hardly ever conducting in-depth investigations into government activities. The 'fourth estate' was intended to be the protector of the people and the watchdog over government. Instead, it's become more cost-effective - and profitable - to simply read the government press release, verbatim - without checking the report for accuracy, truthfulness or completeness. If the media buys into what our government tells us, the people only follow along like sheep being led to slaughter.

Does not anyone believe that the incident at Heathrow Airport could have been staged by the Bush administration in an effort to boost George Bush's dismal approval ratings (had it happened during a Democratic administration, you can bet the conservative media would have blustered such accusations)?
Could it be possible that the 9-11 disaster was staged by the Bush administration as a means of taking us into an illegal, unconstitutional war with Iraq just so George Bush could settle a personal vendetta against Hussein and Dick Cheney could get all of Iraq's OIL for his Exxon-Mobil buddies?
Does anyone believe that we'll be in a war with Iran by the middle of 2007 because Cheney also wants all of that OIL?
The left-wing-biased media hardly exists today. The media is controlled, hook, line, and mouthpiece, by the conservative-biased media whose intent is to bring down this country and destroy what once was the greatest nation on Earth.
Unfortunately, if we could vote all of the crooked Republicans out of office today, we'd only replace them with equally crooked Democrats. America needs to overhaul its political system. And the only way that will happen is with another American Revolution and Boston Tea Party. -RKO-

The CBS Evening News would be a good place to start, although it's not as bad now that Gunga Dan Rather is gone.

Let's say that there is a town called Ugly Moose, Wisconsin, population 1,000. Let's say last year that Ugly Moose, Wisconsin had one murder. Let's say that this year Ugly Moose, Wisconsin has two murders.
Unbiased reporting would simply report that last year Ugly Moose, Wisconsin had two murders and this year they had two murders.
Biased media would blaze headlines in huge type, "UGLY MOOSE, WISCONSIN HAS 100% INCREASE IN MURDER RATE!"...or failing that, "MURDERS DOUBLE IN UGLY MOOSE, WISCONSIN!"
This is rather facetious but it gets the point across:
Reporter: "Mr. President is it true that you have had a sex change operation?"
Mr. President: "Don't be ridiculous! Of course not!"
Next day in the liberal biased news media: "PRESIDENT DENIES HAVING SEX CHANGE OPERATION!"
Get the point?

I can't give you any examples, but I know it is because that's what I heard and stuff. You know?
