"Here is a link to proof of the overwhelming media bias."

Let's see. A book written in 1980. A poll of 28 friends. A poll from 1982. Another where the majority didn't answer as to orientation or identified themselves as independents, and the results are reported like the independents are Democrats.

So you have a collection of studies, some of which are more than a generation old and many having severe methodology problems as that is your proof.

But, ok. Let us assume that they are valid, despite the reasons to question their conclusions or their relevance. Why aren't more self-identified Republicans journalists? Discrimination? Maybe they are too white? Oops, that can't be it, most are already white. Too dumb? Off hand the only Republican journalism major I know of is George Deutsch and there was a class he couldn't pass so he didn't graduate. They get into trouble because they just make shit up? I know Judith Miller had this problem. So why is this true? Maybe because it isn't?
