Thread, Further on my topic here of media bias I'd like to give the latest example just heard on CNBC. Bruce Francis, in his lead-in to interviewing Microsoft's COO re the latest court paper filings, began his comments with "The empire strikes back in court papers this afternoon." His equating Microsoft with the evil empire in Star Wars or simply using the term "empire" to mean Microsoft is as clear an example of editorializing as I can come up with today. What is the uneducated investor/viewer who just happened to turn to CNBC to get some news about the world of business to think, when a so-called "reporter" uses derogotory terminology in describing a listed company? Does the investor receive information, which he will utilize to make his investment decisions, in an unbiased manner? What does CNBC have to gain by such editorializing other than pandering to the baser emotions of their audience? Why are they so judgemental rather than neutral? Enough of my rant. Comments? Barry Comments? Barry
