Lou Dobbs??:roll:
Please... with the exception of a few loose cannons MSM is right of center moderate.
LMMFAO!
This from a guy that just stood up for a phony story that Media Matters concocted to attack Fox and Glenn Beck. lolololol
A person that's so totally blinded by their political ideology, as you've demonstrated yourself to be, isn't capable of judging when a water bottle is filled, much less the media's political leaning.
Yes, MSM is a little more tolerant on social issues (abortion, gay rights) but on major fiscal/economic issues--these are fortune 500, multi-national media corps were talking about... THINK!
There she blows......
About 5 or 6 years ago, George Soros and the people he had running Media Matters, realized that more and more people were waking up to just how biased the MSM was. They knew they had to stop as many people as they could from discovering just how liberal the media was, by finding a way to convince them that the media actually has a conservative bias.
That was no easy task. They had to find a logical way to convince people that the liberal bias they were seeing with their own two eyes, couldn't possibly exist... And that's how "The Corporate Media" was born.
The idea behind the "corporate media" scam, was to get people to believe that since huge multi million dollar corporations owned all the major media outlets, and since liberals are the enemy to big business, it would be against their own financial interests to allow their media companies to promote a liberal political agenda.
The way the corporate media scam works, is by steering the conversation or focus, away from the liberal bias that people have seen, heard, or witnessed from the main stream media. They want to get people to stop evaluating bias based on their presentation, and instead get them to evaluate bias using "greedy corporate CEO" angle. The premise is, that the media couldn't possibly have a liberal bias, because it doesn't make sense on a corporate level... What does make sense logically, is that the media has a conservative bias, because promoting conservatives means less regulations and more profit.
If you've ever in your life clearly witnesses something happen, and then had someone explain in great detail, making perfect logical sense, how you couldn't have possibly seen what you claimed to have, until you finally concede that they must be right, even though you still can't discredit what you saw...
That is exactly how the "Corporate Media" scam works... Or should I say how it was supposed to work. What ended up happening is, the only people that fell for the "Corporate Media" scam, were the people on the far left who were desperate for anything that they could use to justify their distorted perspective.
The problems is far-rights are so far from center, they have a distorted view of what 'center' really is. Policies that are pragmatic and practical are seen as 'liberal' or leftist.
Sure... That's it. Were all demented by partisanship... but you see things clearly... lololol
Then I guess all the professors, as well as all the people in the political science departments of Columbia University and UCLA are all far right kooks too, for publishing studies that determined conclusively that the media in America had a very distinct liberal bias?
In fact, that would mean that every person involved in every single credible study published on media bias over the last 20 years, are also far right ideologues.
That sounds plausible.
