Proof of the Liberal Media's Double Standard

[ily 'TIL THE end]

So last month we told you about JournoList, a private e-mail group of liberal journalists who secretly conspired to promote a progressive pro-Obama agenda. Once this group was exposed, it broke up.

But now Tucker Carlson and The Daily Caller have their e-mails, some revealing a plot by the hacks to kill the Jeremiah Wright story during the 2008 primaries, and also to smear anyone who criticizes Obama.

The smear? An accusation of racism.

Hi Æther:

Your use of the rolling eye smiley confuses and infuriates me.

Also, provide a real news source or it didn't happen.

Fox is complaining about bias?

I'm sure that there is no real need to prove most media sources, whether liberal or not, are biased. Most people know.

So because Fox isn't liberal, it automatically becomes inaccurate?

I don't understand why the Conservative Media doesn't realise it looks ridiculous when it uses a term like the 'Liberal Media'.

I don't watch Fox enough, but what makes them any more bias than all the other liberal news?

Well, I'm sure a person of your political leanings wont consider the way they report the news to be bias but and indisputable fact is that an overwhelming majority of their 'commentators' are of an obvious conservative bias. Bill O'Reilly, for instance.

Also, their chairman is a raging Republican. Roger Ailes is his name. Not that that necessarily means the channel will be bias...


The overall quality of Fox News is just appalling to be honest, even if you don't see the conservative leanings, it's just a joke.

So why do they still get air if they are so "bias"?
