conservative media bias?

Question

So, on NPR today at lunch.. they were running a story about a possible leak of a CIA report about Iran.. in the report it is supposed to say that Iran ONLY has exactly what they have reported to have in terms of nuclear power giving the US no right to sanction them or think of military actions.. Obviously this would'nt help the Bush campaign and i have seen nothing about it on any of the major media outlets.. yet conservatives claim liberal media bias? If Bush invades Iran, and we find no WMD's there either, will they then stop believing everything he says?

They talked plenty about John Kerry and almost none at all about Ann Coulter who said "The widows of 9/11 victims are enjoying their husbands deaths" but thank you, try again.

wizexel22 .. if you don't here conservative media bias it probably means you are on a conservative media outlet. Granted both do exist, but as a whole it is slanted to the right.. I listen to NPR, Rush, watch most major news stations as well as read local and national papers.. and i also watch foreign news stations.. i think i've stepped about as far back as one can.

Answer 1

Look what the conservative media does
They were the only ones that would consider airing that trash with OJ Simpson

Well how bout this
How bout Bush does something right for once
The guys been wrong on everything The Budget, WMD's
Iraq
The guy screws up everything he touches

Answer 2

You have to take a step back and look at the big picture. First of all, how often do you ever hear the words "conservative media bias"? Hardly ever, and even my most liberal friends only use that term for ONE station....Fox. How can there be a conservative media bias when most of the media isnt conservative. It really makes no sense.

As far as the Iran stuff. I think its somewhat dangerous when you hear anything that isnt officially confirmed. We, the public, really have no idea what is going on behind the scenes here. I have friends that work for the government and they deal with highly classified information. Of course, they can't say anything, but all they'll say is its ridiculous how little the public knows of what actually is going on in the world. As far as the WMDs are concerned they backed Bush on that topic....and they are crazy ANTI-Bush.
Iran deserves sanctions specifically for their threats and intent of using nuclear weapons....whether they actually have it or not. Which we can't possibly know (especially the general public)....look how caught off guard we were when N.Korea detonated a possible nuclear weapon.
The Iranian president Ahmadinejad has stated his intent to use nuclear weapons (as well as claiming the Holocaust is just a myth).....and to even defend such a person in the slightest is a little irksome.

Answer 3

This is a fairly ridiculous question. You are assuming that because of one conservative story, there is no liberal media bias. Are you kidding? Wake up man! Did you miss the elections? For the past six months the media has been telling every story about a rotten republican it can find, and not talking about the corrupt democrats. The liberal anti-war poster boy Murtha was video taped in a bribery scandal!!!! HELLO!!!!

Answer 4

Since when is the media conservative. Did I go to sleep last
night and miss something?

By the way, no one ever said that Iran had WMD's but they do
have the potential.

Answer 5

They've already stopped believing what he says. The people who still believe what he says, aren't the brightest crayons in the box. But, yeah I wouldn't put it past the old boy to start beatin' his drum for another war.

Answer 6

No, but it won't matter, he will be out of office by then.
