| VinceZeb | The case can be made that there is no liberal bias, but it is a weak one. But Alterman is a fucking whiner. God I can't stand that ass. |

| Miss Modular | Didn't say I agreed with him. But is there a good counter-argument to Goldberg's book? I looked at Eric Alterman's, and I don't think It provided an effective case. |

The media is biased towards selling papers. The papers that are biased towards ideology are pretty clear about it, like The Post. Is it really a surprise to anybody that Murdoch is a conservative? Media in general is just bad. Not liberal, not conservative, just bad. |

| mburbank | When the NYT prints retractions for their WMD coverage, I'll start thinking about a liberal bias as opposed to a moolah/power bias. |

| Miss Modular | I opened this thread because my brother is reading Bernard Goldberg's book, and seems to be believing every word of it. |

Yeah Yeah that was insightful. Thanks. God knows you never hear about liberals complaining that the media is white washing the news to make the President look good. It works both ways. To suggest that the "media" as a whole is biased either way is silly. |

I know exactly what you are talking about, Modular, and i do NOT believe that there is a liberal bias to the media. If that were so, then Vinth would not have those sources he uses, whose names escape me at the moment, but I am sure you all know who I am talking about. There are just as many conservatives in the media as liberals. It is just that liberals get the bum-rap for "controlling the media" from the conservative media. Here endeth the lesson. |

| Sethomas | No. |

Yes... but you'd have to know what I'm thinking of to understand what I'm talking about. Me too. |
