Comments: Democrats Show Signs of Realizing Conservative Bias In Media

Unfortunately, those most misinformed are those that are most entrenched in their positions.

God, this makes me sick. This has been going on for more than 20 years, and the Democrats are just now waking up to the fact that they have been out-flanked, out-hustled, out-organized on every front?

No wonder they are the pathetic party.

Nicholas Confessore's article on The Myth of the Democratic Establishment is an eye opener. The Democratic Party is a shell, and Howard Dean is trying revitalize a brand identity without a viable infrastructure.

Has anyone noticed that CNN only refers to Iowa Caucus voters as "Democratic Activists".

After all, referring to them as "voters" doesn't please Herr Rove.

Forty-two percent of Republicans see bias toward the Democrats

Difference between republicans and Democrats is:

republicans see a bias if the media and public opinion don't agree with them 100%. There's NO possibility for even a shade of disagreement. republicans will only see "No Bias" if all reporting is like Fox.

I am regularly stunned to meet educated liberals who think that news coverage is liberal biased. I ask them who they think owns all of the major news outlets? What about Fox news and Rush? Where is the liberal equivalent I ask. NPR and Tom Brokaw they say. Like ol' Tom rants about Bush like Rush rants about Hilary.

It drives me fucking crazy.

Since the Daily show has a clear liberal slant, I find it ironic that your mention this show in your crusade to show the media has a conservative bias.
