oh please. Quit this "liberal media" spin. You know what you sound like? A bitter short bear.

Once upon a time, CNBC was wildly bullish. There were a few guys like Mark Haines who tried to keep perspective but the overall cnbc network was somewhat over the top bullish. Since about mid 01, CNBC has been bearish, aprticularly towards tech, with pieces like "the big heist" and "WorldCON" etc. and reporters literally hounding tech CEOs about options expensing and dividends. Maybe now that we are in a bull phase, CNBC will back off. But anyway right now, most bears still try to convince themselves that CNBC is a bullish tout program.

That is how it is with this "liberal media" soundbyte, it is tiring, there is no liberal media anymore. There may have been a liberal bias once but NOW, with the success of Fox news, the liberal bias has all but drowned. Try to find ANY coverage that was even remotely slanted against the Bush warmongering during Iraq. Nothing.

There is no liberal bias. There are a bunch of blowhard conservatives on air like Hannity and O'Reilly who scream at the top of their lungs 24/7. No equivalent on the liberal side unless you want to include Al Franken but he doesn't have his own show.

BTW since Bush's poll numbers fell out Hannity seems like he is going to cry, or his head is going to explode or something. The man is hysterical.
