This is a known fact, the media belongs to the unions, and the unions support the Democrats. The Medias purpose is to promote the Democrats and destroy the Republicans. America gets only one side of the story from the media, and people believe they are getting truth. The Senate and Harry Reid tried to slam Rush Limbaugh for free speech. Democrats fear Limbaugh because he speaks the truth. This country is in big trouble if they don’t wise up and get the whole truth instead of what the liberal media wants you to know.

Yes, an obese,opinionated, drug addicted fear monger is just the kind of person I count on for the truth.

1. The media exists to report news not destroy Republicans but unfortunately now they add commentary to the new which I do not particularly like but they still are not here to destroy Republicans
2. America gets both sides of the media...many people watch Fox and listen to Rush...whether they believe and take is seriously is their freedom of CHOICE. I think Fox News and Limbaugh are ridiculous, maybe if they took a more fair approach to their reporting and commentary I could take them seriously.
3. Harry Reid was disagreeing with Limbaugh...not trying to "Slam Rush Limbaugh for free speech." Reid was using his freedom of speech
4. Rush Limbaugh's show is ENTIRELY about HIS opinion so I am not really sure what you mean by Democrats denying truths and only listening to opinions.
5. If people want to watch what you call "liberal media" they can.
6. The media does NOT belong to unions

Actually I would say Limbaugh and company offer the same level of rhetoric only to the right....the truth is actually in the middle some where.
The sad thing is polarization has occured. If the "right" is for it the "left" is against it and the opposite is true.
The media isn't owned by the unions and thus democratic; take a look at voter registration cards for people in the business of "media" presentation and research - its 91% democratic.

If you are so right, how do Republicans even get elected? The media is basically what runs this country now and if the media is just promoting Democrats, as you say, how do people like Bush even get elected? I don't think you get the whole truth either because anything you read is bias and this whole question is opinion.

You are giving opinion not truth.
The Neocons have a hard time distinguishing between truth and fantasy.
Truth is that the Republicans have zero chance of being in the White House past 21 Jan 09.
Fantasy is that the Republicans have an electable candidate.

Which media is the question, the TV is obviously slanted to the left, the radio however is dominated by the right, newspapers tend to be on the left but can really go either way, the internet is up for grabs by any lunatic.
Unions support the democrats
what's your point?
CEO's support Republicans

A 'known fact'! wow. The media belongs to the unions. Let's see...NBC is owned by GE...CBS is owned by Westinghouse...ABC is owned by Disney...HARDLY liberal organizations or unions. Those are facts.
I do NOT fear Rush in the least...I laugh at him...if he is all you can offer for support...a drug addict and a thief, then...well, your position is in trouble. Have you watched the nightly news lately? They are beholden to the advertisers and are quite conservative. I watched my local news do investigative reporting on a women who had too many dogs! Wow...that's some liberal spin all right. Lady has lots of dogs...big story...it must be a liberal conspiracy to stop the conservatives from their god given right to own 100 dogs if they want to! THANK YOU for opening my eyes.
I do recall the House of Representatives recently spending a lot of time on an AD....an AD.....free speech, right? Yet the vast right wing conspiracy is slamming moveon.org for free speech! Slamming them!

why are Republicans absolutely crazy and have all of these "truths" that they couldn't back up if you give them a year to study it?
the "9-11 truthers" back up their arguments better than you guys... and they are crazy too...
QUESTION: how did Rush even get a show, if the Unions control the media?
whoops? that doesn't make any sense does it?

For the same reason Republicans do -- what you consider "facts" and "opinions" is often different than what they consider facts and opinions -- and often leading to very different conclusions.
That's part of the aspect of partisan polarization -- both sides accuse the other of being delusional.
Thank you for playing -- now here's a copy of our home game.
