Please do not confuse a journalist's personal political leanings with what he/she reports. I think Bill Clinton would dissagree with anyone who would say that the "press" is liberal in it's reporting of news, otherwise attempts would never have been made to impeach him for getting a BJ. (If you consider Bill Clinton to be a "liberal", would not the "liberal press" have made some attempt to downplay that story?).
The press is ANTI-ESTABLISHMENT, thank God. Authority NEEDS to be questioned constantly. That is one of the very foundations on which this country was founded. It (the press) asks questions, regardless of political affiliation. Statistical analysis of new stories, both in print and broadcast media, simply and unequivocably support the statement that the press is NOT liberal. Those are facts, not beliefs. Most mainstream news organizations in this country are owned, in fact, by conservatives. Some 55-60% of reporters, by predominant methodology of determining political/social attitudes, are on the liberal side of the fence. Again, that does not mean their reporting is automatically liberal. One does not, by necessity, lead to the other. Most editorial comments in the major news publications are, in fact, conservative in their opinions.
By the way...George W. Bush is a f'ing moron...
