The most obvious and clear cut evidence of left wing media bias is the ratings of Fox and right wing talk radio relative to left wing news and radio sources.
For arguments let's say there are an equal number of right leaning and left leaning people people in the country and another bunch somewhere in the center.
When the typical right leaning person watches/listens to CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, MTV, NPR, Comedy, etc... at a certain point he/she wants to vomit because they believe the reporting is biased.
When the typical left leaning person watches Fox, CNBC, or listens to talk radio at a certain point he/she wants to vomit because they believe the reporting is biased.
However, even though there are equal numbers of right leaning and left leaning people, the rating for the right leaning media sources always blow out the left leaning sources. The reason why is actually obvious. The right leaning people have fewer sources so their numbers are way more concentrated in among the fewer options they have to hear right leaning news and commentary. The left has so many alternatives, their numbers are heavily dispersed among the many options. |
