<< "What I find interesting is that they say the bias has been there for many years. Yet in 2000, stories about Gore were far more likely to be negative than stories about Bush. The so-called liberal media must have just not liked Gore." >>

So you opine sans any credible evidence (again) & in the face of a study documenting it. And once again your opinion conflicts with reality.

You see, I paid close attention to the 200 election. I was stunned & appalled at the overt liberal media bias. My wife was so shocked & sickened by both the MSM & DNC after the election that she changed her registration from life long Democrat to Independent. I chose to begin documenting the relentless, overt leftist bias because it became obvious that libs seemed utterly blind to it.

Unfortunately, libs have also become so blindly partisan that many are still unable to see leftist MSM bias even when confronted with overwhelming evidence of its existence.

Here are but a few examples from the last couple of weeks (out of thousands documented on my thread over the years):

It's The Economy, Stupid MSM
    IBD notes that 90% of the economic coverage in October
1992 were negative, but that decreased to 14% in
November ... after the election had concluded, and Bill
Clinton won.

Economic Doom and Gloom
    I think another study that Kevin Hassett.. tells the story
more clearly of why this economy is not getting the
respect it deserves. In that study, Hassett and John Lott
documented media bias in covering economic news depending
on whether there was a Republican or a Democratic
president in the White House. The results are quite
striking.

Kean More Than Holding His Own
    As usual, though, the sample tells an interesting story.
The gap between Democrats and Republicans seems rather
wide in the sample. On page 15 of the analysis, we find
that the sample consisted of 22% Republicans, but 35% each
for Democrats and independents.

    It's hard to know what to make of a news service that
persistently retails fables as facts, or of a reporter who
writes about President Bush "revising his explanation for
why the U.S. is in Iraq" without, apparently, having
bothered to read Congress's Authorization for the Use of
Military Force. But maybe it's not worth commenting on
what is in reality, like a lot of AP stories these days, a
campaign ad for the Democratic Party.
