Liberal Media Bias Real And Going Strong

Topics: Political News and commentaries

In what the authors call surprising findings from a UCLA-led study, in what is believed to be the first successful attempt at objectively quantifying bias in a range of media outlets and ranking them accordingly, it has been objectively determined that a quantifiable and significant bias exists in the media, and that nearly all of them lean to the left.

(...) While the editorial page of The Wall Street Journal is conservative, the newspaper's news pages are liberal, even more liberal than The New York Times. The Drudge Report may have a right-wing reputation, but it leans left. Coverage by public television and radio is conservative compared to the rest of the mainstream media. Meanwhile, almost all major media outlets tilt to the left.

(...) "Overall, the major media outlets are quite moderate compared to members of Congress, but even so, there is a quantifiable and significant bias in that nearly all of them lean to the left," said co‑author Jeffrey Milyo, University of Missouri economist and public policy scholar.

The findings of the study may be a surprise to the authors, but it's old news to the rest of us that have to endure day in and day out of nonstop media coverage touting the liberal secular anti-Christian, anti-Jewish, anti-administration, anti-military, anti-faith and values agenda.
