How come I never heard about the liberal media until Bush started screwing things up?

Question

It's funny that the liberal media was never an issue until Bush got us into this travesty of a war. Once they started reporting on the atrocities in Iraq, they were labeled as "liberal". So if I understand this correctly, any news organization that does not kiss the President's azz has a liberal bias, right? When the news agencies were covering the Clinton impeachment ad nauseum, was that the conservative media?

Answer 1

I have been aware of the liberal bias of the media for at least 10 years. It's not like the conspiracy some conservatives would like you to think. It's just the fact that most reporters are liberal & therefore, the end up with a skewed idea of what "moderate" is.

When covering protests, they would find the most cool headed liberal & the nuttiest conservative to interview. Broadcasters would make references to "moderate Democrats" & "conservative Republicans."

The CBS "memogate" is clear enough to show bias. When presented documents that make a conservative look bad, assume the documents are accurate unless proven otherwise. But if presented with documents that made a liberal look bad, you can be sure they would assume the documents were forged unless proven otherwise.
