For many years, myself and millions of other Americans have rightfully proclaimed and proved that there is a liberal bias in the media.

Certainly the major noncable news networks, i.e., - NBC,CBS,ABC - are horribly biased toward the left.

And the major cable, all-news channels such as CNN and MSNBC also have a liberal slant to the news. This has frustrated conservatives for many years because it simply is not fair. It is not fair because the media is a very powerful medium that can influence people's views of the world.

What is really laughable about CNN and MSNBC is that whenever they are questioned about their obvious and blatant bias, they deny it and attempt to ridicule their accusers. In their arrogance, they simply chose to deny that they of all people, are not objective and are biased and they simply refused to listen to the American people.

Then came FOX news. What a breath of fresh air! And what do we hear from the loony left now about FOX? "Fox is biased!", or "What an outrage!"

Bias comes in subtle ways. Bias from CNN and MSNBC comes in many forms. For example:

1. The way so called journalists ask a question and the tone of the voice. Their manner of reporting essentially boils down to the proverbial question "are you STILL beating your wife?"

2. How the news is reported.

3. What to report and what not to report.

4. In their token effort to provide both sides, they select articulate communicators for the left and bumbling idiots who are ineffective communicators for the right. (Although it could be argued even the best of the left is idiotic, but I won't go there)

When you observe bias in the media, bring it here and expose it.

That's what this discussion board is about.
