I may read the book, just for the entertainment factor. Like you, I don't need confirmation about the left-leaning bias of much of the press in the United States. (BTW, I deleted that post to Emma because I saw that the article I quoted was the same article from Drudge that was linked before.)

I plan to read Goldberg's book. I find this bias issue fascinating and have been following the issue for a while. While I agree that the mainstream media comes across as leaning left, I don't find the lean as dramatic as do others and much of what I see I can explain as other than bias. I'm looking forward to finding specific examples and Goldberg's explanations of them. FWIW, I never really watched the network evening news shows, so perhaps I've missed the worst of it. Karen
