Anyone who thinks that any newspaper is skewed one way or another needs pull there head out of talk radio, or Air America. Everything has a spin from people with bleeding hearts talking about the one legged ____, to greedy columnists taking a cut from the man to write a story they like.
If you don't believe me look at all the disputes on here over politics. You think everyone you don't agree with is dumb? Think again you might be just as wrong as them.

I might buy that if most of this countries new sources weren't owned by 7 organizations.
But since they are I'll have to go by what I see for myself.
And as far as I see, they are just administration echo chambers.
That is why I read and watch news from around the world, it gives me a good idea what kind of crap I'm being fed here at home.
There's a reason it's called the main stream LIB media.

People get a clue. Newspapers and television news are in the business to make a profit. The objective is to create a product that sells advertising.

This is gonna be an entertaining thread to watch. Some say the media has no bias. Some say the media has a leftist bias. Some say the media is part of the vast right-wing KON-spiracy....
Let 'er rip boys!

After spending 28 years in the Fire Service I have learned one thing about the media. If they don't have all the facts then they'll just make something up. And they are sneaky, dirty, underhanded and will try an end run around you every time.
More from the main stream LIB media.
