Every single study exposes the liberal media bias, yet libs keep denying it and claim FOX is one that's unbalanced. What percentage says this because they are stupid, what percentage says this because they are dishonest, and what percentage says this because they are parroting what they heard on the Daily Show?

Hey retard, post a link to a scholarly study and we'll listen.
Simple investigative skills involve checking your sources. When you keep going to the same one place for your information it sort of negates the information over time, doesn't it? When you look at conservative think tank results, what do you expect to find?
Read (if they're not too complex for you) studies published by actual graduate level people that are trying to answer a question, not just back up an assumption. Then make your decision.
You article makes the assumption that the media is liberal because they cheered when Rove stepped down. It does not address the possibility that they were cheering because Rove and his team have made news gathering difficult due to policies that Rove himself may have played a part in (for instance, photos of the bodies coming home from the Middle East, historically, have dampened the public view of war). I implore you to use that head of yours, not just as a sponge, and come to your own conclusions by thought, it is indeed a rarity among conservatives....

All news is biased to one side at least a little. This is because they choose to report on the stories they want to.
Anyone who thinks that some news programs don't have any bias is mistaken.
Are you saying that all liberals lie about bias in the media? Although some liberals may say that, it is very unfair to say all liberals do.

why do cons keep lying and denying the truth about GWB?
how about posting several links to confirm your statement instead of the one link that is also biased? by posting links that are both liberal as well as conservative, that would give your statement some substance. but instead, you provide a totally biased site which makes you no better than the very thing you complain about. when are you people going to get real???? How about reviving the "fairness doctrine"...then every media outlet would have to provide both sides of the issues, both pro and con, liberal and conservative. or does that kind of regulation scare you? would FoxNews go out of business if they had to present both sides of the coin?

Sigh...
There is a difference between a liberal media bias and the truth. If you don't want the bad news, then watch war movies instead. I like war movies. They are usually pretty entertaining. The news only tells you what's going on in the world, and sometimes it gives you some differing opinions. If that is too traumatic for you, stick with the entertaining stuff.

I'm assuming then that you can provide credible and (this next part is important) UNBIASED sources for said studies? Otherwise, your claim of a liberal media bias is baseless, and I shall ignore it.
I'll come back later to check on your progress and respond appropriately.

I wish there was at least one news station that was fair and just reported the news without any political biasness.
Yes, Fox is slanted to the right, but how many stations are slanted to the left? CBS, ABC, CNN, NBC, MSNBC, a lot of stations are slanted to the left.
truth seeker: hahaha, libs tried talk radio but no one tuned in...

I suspect the ratio of dishonest democrats to stupid democrats is higher than the ratio of dishonest republicans to stupid republicans. At least, at the rank and file level.
But, subtle insults aside, the perception of bias in the media is largely a factor of the bias of the observer. Liberals see broad conservative bias - even outside of FoxNews and talk radio - because they hold irrationally to leftist views. Conserviatives see broad liberal media bias - sometimes even on FoxNews or from talk radio personalities less strident than Michael Savage - because they hold irrationally to right-wing views.

Bubble Drone- no facts, just more "baaaaahas" from the pasture. Your assertions of "stupid", "dishonest" and "parroting" seem to glaringly apply to you and your sheep brethren, stuff some hay in your pie-hole!

from a foreign perspective, all american media is very right wing. They happily spouted all the lies about the wmds, yellow cake, saddam-osama links and such, suppressing all the info that every other country in world knew about.

Fox actually tried to throw the moronic spin on the Iraq Civil War that it would be good for the country, "Civil War: Would it be good for Iraq?" Pull your head out of that dark region and embrace reality.
