It's virtually impossible for people to point the finger at bias.

It's the little things that don't stand out. I would love to see the results of a Lexus/Nexus search on the three Network Anchors' use of "Right wing" and "Left Wing" when referring to Pols.

The Social Bias among the Media staffs makes a big difference in the way they handle stories. It is impossible to find a female media reporter who is "Pro-Life." Only among the columnists. This drastically influences the way they report on the subject. And don't forget that polls show the majority of people in this country are "Pro Life."

Same situation exists in the BG of people reporting on Gun Control and other conservative issues. When you have polls showing better than 80% of the media votes left, you know it affects the reporting.

What is going to change this is the bottom line. As the Media bosses see Conservative viewpoints getting the better ratings they will go with Conservative hires.
