Rather Biased?


Posted by Bruno on September 16th, 2004

Ok, I know everyone’s used that headline already. I’m slow sometimes. But this letter published by Sullivan really got me thinking:

I always thought the clear liberal bias at CBS (and others) was just a natural consequence of the way the liberal journalists dominating MSM see the world rather than a concerted effort to push a liberal agenda (the fish don’t feel the water theory, as others have put it). I now see how wrong I was. If CBS is willing to not only shred even the pretense of journalistic ethics, but to actually conspire to commit fraud … in a desperate attempt to throw a presidential election and install their candidate, then I must do everything I can to oppose them.

Does CBS really have a liberal agenda? The same CBS that blocked the movie The Reagans because it was too liberal? The same CBS that refused to show MoveOn.org’s anti-bush ads and PETA ads during the Superbowl?? This is the network that’s going to go down in history as being LIBERAL??? Oh, Jeez… that’s unbelievable.

Don’t get me wrong, I don’t apologize for the actions of CBS news with regard to the forged documents. But seriously, LIBERAL media?? Apparently only when it serves a purpose. Opportunistic, maybe. Liberal, not.
