World is round says study; Moonbats faint...Bush blamed
A UCLA study assigning a numerical value to legislators based on their voting records and then comparing that to media coverage has uncovered...gasp!...evidence of bias in the media. And no, Karl Rove was NOT one of the study investigators.
The three-year study found that the news pages of the Wall Street Journal, CBS Evening News, The New York Times and the Los Angeles Times received the most liberal rating among news outlets. Sounds about right to me. Of the 20 major media outlets, 18 scored to the left of the average American voter. The only two to the right were Special Report with Brit Hume on FOX, which was only slightly to the right and, in fact, made the list as fourth most centrist show, and the Washington Times.
The study focused on news stories, omitting opinion/editorial pieces. That's one of the reasons the Wall Street Journal made the liberal list.
The study provides no new insights for the majority of Americans...bias in the news is a given. It will be ignored or criticized by liberals who have their own fantasy worldview and are unshakable in their faith that it's true.
