The New York Times' refusal to publish John McCain's rebuttal to Barack Obama's Iraq op-ed may be the most glaring example of liberal media bias this journalist has ever seen. But true proof of widespread media bias requires one to follow an old journalism maxim: Follow the money. Given the quality of the McCain campaign, the op-ed piece he submitted to the Times was probably sh*t. That's why they turned it down. They can't say that because it would be considered unprofessional. See the truth is......you all have much lower standards than the rest of us. Most of the what I see of the right's output these days stinks. Its quality is inferior......third world even. The only way you guys seem to win elections is by swiftboating, lying and/or stealing. It started with Nixon and its been downhill ever since. Its time to stop attacking and start doing some good old fashion rehabbing and rebuilding of your party from the ground up.

An analysis of federal records shows that the amount of money journalists contributed so far this election cycle favors Democrats by a 15:1 ratio over Republicans, with $225,563 going to Democrats, only $16,298 to Republicans. This ratio of campaign contributions is very revealing. Journalists work very closely with politicians......much closer than the average American. The fact that they contribute more to Dems suggests they consider the quality and behavior of the GOPers to be inferior. Thanks for posting the article.
