What you should have heard from this is: No side owns the truth, you can only take its side, and Fox is much more often on the side of truth than the mainstream. The truth itself doesn't give two shits about who takes its side, it's YOUR duty to yourself and all things good to seek the truth for yourself, not join a pointless debate consisting of 'Fox vs. CNN/MSNBC/etc'.
Liberal bias in the media, implies that more than half of all the independent and major media outlets are corrupted.
It's a comical notion, because it implies that the majority of media outlets are corrupted while only a chooses few are exempted from said corruption.
Realistically, wouldn't it be the other way around?
With all the forms of broadcasting these days, i've heard the media is becoming more and more the voice of the people. Perhaps, im just naive.
I find it interesting that he attacks the media for "liberal bias" but doesn't mention FOX News bias. All corporate media is bias, switching from the established "left" and "right" when appropriate. Since he doesn't mention FOX News, it weakens his case greatly.
I don't want the uneducated to influence my media sources, and independent studies have repeatedly shown that educated americans are much more likely to vote democrat.
Also, liberals are the majority. There are roughly 1.5 democrats for every republican living in the united states, we just don't care about them because they don't vote.
This is ridiculous. A Tea Party-supporting dumbass conservative is bitching about "media bias" from some stupid reporter at CNN, while DENYING all the promotion that Fox News did for the Tea Party?? COME ON!
Why do conservatives have this uncanny need to see "liberal bias" in everything?? There's even a conservapedia! LOL
Maybe they just can't admit that it's a lot more complex than any kind of 'bias' when they see stories or reports they disagree with or think were 'unprofessional'? Susan Roesgen is a bitch, in general. So what! That doesn't "prove" media bias.
Besides, conservatives talk about media bias like it's some GIANT CONSPIRACY against conservatives. Oh, please! You really think the NY Times is plotting every morning on how to make liberals look good and conservatives look bad? They have little strategy meetings?
Of course not. The bias is, if anything, subconscious. People see the world through filters. There's no such thing as totally objective reporting. Conservatives need to stop setting up this unrealistic standard.
@whoo689 Explain why when Rep congressman Mark Foley got caught sending explict text messages to male congressional pages back in 2006, both Time and Newsweek magazines did front cover stories on it yet when Anthony Weiner got caught texting pics to unknown women (some minor), all Time and Newsweek could do was offer short blurbs and no covers. The network nightly news did 55 stories on Foley within 12 days of the story breaking; Weiner 11.
@whoo689 Think instead of spewing! Susan Roesgen was just one glaring example very well illustrated via her earlier Bush comment. Fox news did not promote the Tea Party... you're demonstrating your ignorance when you can't even see the difference between Fox News and some of the Fox network's admittedly conservative commentators? That's the big difference... the Fox commentators are open about their "filtered" view... few of the progressive media are!
@whoo689 It is so ironic that you call Whittle a 'dumbass' when you're too stupid to see his point: that there is no such thing as 'unbiased media'. What is offensive is that our overwhelmingly left-biased media CALLS themselves objective. Most of them truly believe they ARE objective. And media bias is already proven - there are countless studies showing that the MSM does significantly more positive stories about Obama than negative ones, despite his tragically horrible presidency.
@primpal08 Fox has an exceedingly bigger amount of viewers than the MSM does. and it's a conservative network. so I think it's pretty rich saying that Obama wouldn't have won the election without help from the MSM, given the amount of help McCain had from Fox. The MSM is liberal and Fox is Conservative, but Fox has way more viewers to influence.
@prafty You actually believe that Fox has more viewers than the main stream media combined? You do realize that the rest of the mainstream media consists of ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, etc., etc., etc. right? You really believe that Fox has more viewers that all the other media outlets combined? Are you serious? Where, exactly, do you get your information from?
@prafty I saw the story your talking about. Fox news topped all other cable news channels. The main stream media covers a lot more than just the cable news channels. ABC, CBS, NBC are not cable news channels. I didn’t even go into newspapers, magazines, movie companies, etc. Maybe you should go back and read it again.
@prafty ... except that Fox didn't help McCain. The news programs on Fox reported his every gaffe and error just like the rest of the MSM, and the Conservative pundits hated McCain (Coulter said she'd vote for Hillary before McCain). The only difference is that Fox also reported Obama's gaffes and shady background, which the MSM did not. And Fox has been more willing to hold Obama accountable, while the MSM has not.
There's a big difference between calling somebody Hitler for wanting to help the uninsured and calling someone Hitler for sending troops over to die under a false pretense. While I don't think Hitler comparisons are ever appropriate when criticizing out president, let's not pretend that it's equal, it's far from equal. Oh, and that reporter was fired from CNN and widely criticized by the mainstream media.
Archbishop Charles Chaput -- "We make a very serious mistake if we rely on media like the New York Times, Newsweek, CNN, or MSNBC for reliable news about religion. These news media simply don’t provide trustworthy information about religious faith — and sometimes they can’t provide it, either because of limited resources or because of their own editorial prejudices.”
If you can't believe these sources about religion, can you believe anything else they print?
Soooo....your one of those crazy tea party people as well? Ya know, I hear Palin is part of that group...and she can see Russia from her house. I'm just saying, maybe Obama won because McCain has 6 kinds of skin cancer and Palin would have been his replacement
Anyone with half a brain knows media bias exist. Problem being that FOX is not even consider media bias. They use a whole different technique which they lie out of their ass and incite fear and hatred explicitly.
Most other media are liberal. Biased? Definitely. Straight up lie? Not entirely.
@wmessengerful What are you talking about? Liberals speak and are guests and are even employed by Fox news. They're on there with their opinions all the time.

that map he showed was really misleading. i mean the MSM may give 15 points to obama, but considering that FOX is watched by far more americans than the MSM is, imagine the amount of points that'd be worth for mccain..
this last episode which blamed beck, palin, linbaugh for the shootings in tuscon completely blew my mind. i remember clinton blaming linbaugh for the oklahoma bombings. this is the same twisted mentality that thinks 9/11 was an inside job.
@heyretard - just asking what Whittle thinks about Fox's biases as shown in News Hounds website and on other videos that we have here on youtube. Just asking ...
@1400deadwood I realize you think that's a clever question, but it's not. Fox is openly conservative. They never pretend to be otherwise. And nobody thinks otherwise. However, leftists constantly misrepresent the situation as if Fox is the only biased network. MSNBC is the most clearly left-biased network, but every other network is also left-biased, as shown by Bill in this video. They have been for ages.
@brainiacgames 'leftists constantly misrepresent the situation as if Fox is the only biased network' - rightists view Fox as objective ('fair & balanced') when it clearly isn't and that all else are biased. People of both sides of the fence (myself included) condemned Dan Rather (who apologized) and that's the same approach we should always take. Fox is conservative but that doesn't give them the right to be biased & go unquestioned. Both sides need to keep it fair. That's my point.
EVERYONE PUSH FOR THIS TO BE VIEWED THIS IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST FORCES CRIPPLING OUR NATION IS THE BIAS OF THE MEDIA! PLEASE PUT A FINE ON THE MEDIA FOR EVERYTIME THEY REPORT SOMETHING THAT IS UNFACTUAL!
This was a hard video to watch. That CNN reporter was as shrill as they get. I would have much rather read the transcript than relive that moment of broadcast malpractice. Sadly, nothing really new to see here, although I am not sure that particular news babe is still employed with that network, though I could be mistaken.
There was an incident last year at a university in cali where a speaker was talking about immigration reform. 5 minutes in students protesting outside rushed the stage and screamed and bantered causing the cancellation of the event. Guess which party the students stood for? A good saying is "they may yell the loudest, but they are not the majority".
I see this is a right wing propaganda video..they must love Bush and hate Obama.. I may be disappointed in Obama but at least Bush deserved to be compared to Hitler he is guilty of murder, the destruction of the economy and civil liberties..Obama just caved to the corrupt republicans and lobbyist
@xadam2dudex speaking of propaganda yours is not bad yourself.
Obama slipped into GW's shoes and they fit pretty well. Focusing on the stimulus plan was the only campaign promise Obama came through on yet even then in the rush to get it out their they neglected to pull the massive amount of pork it had but hey its tax payer money not theirs so who really cares right?.
Both Bush and Obama are bad for America financially yet lets argue along party lines, that will provide answers.
@Shargrailar the economic stimulus plan wasn't much of a plan.. it was made up of large TAX BREAKS with only 50-60% actual spending.. Bush was bad because he tried to destroy the country Obama is bad because he is to weak to stand up to the special interest or was just another bought and paid for politician who said what people wanted to hear then with the corrupt blue dogs and corporate republicans ran campaign to destroy the dems so they could get total control of the government
George Washington told everybody that he disagreed with the idea of political parties. I think that honestly people need to stop voting for politicians, and start voting for people. I knew a lot of republicans that voted for bush and ended up hating him, and now this time I know a lot of democrats that voted for obama that now regret their vote.
Ahhm.. you call this media bias? why this is nothing. Here we have media bias taken to whole new heights, as the Palestinians take it to extremes, even forging entire scenes, like muhammad al-dura's ( watch watch?v=0V9iiA3ahtI ) - this scene is not funny, as this is the real moment where the "second intifada" started, ending the lives of around 6,000 human beings, all because of a media lie. Also watch?v=kfHn6YKdvsk (carefully!) and be the judges yourselves.
Kerry looks like and acts like Fred Munster. Obama thinks he is the smartest man in the world. He is the one that is arrogant, dismissive and derisive. Not the American people. No true leader of the greatest nation in the world would ever go to Europe and say this or to Cairo and give a speech like he did. He is weak and makes us look weak and our Congress and Senate backs him up.
reading over the comments...question. is it me ?...or is it alot harder to find examples of the right attacking regular working american people.Just a question.
I endorse your comments about bias media 100%, however you forgot give the other side of the coin, you forgot to show the bias side from conservative media and there's where you fail and shows yourself as bias. However this doesn't change the fact of what your exposed here is true. There's bias media and anchorwoman/man everywhere, you can see this in this video as the anchorman shows one side of the coin, the liberal media, forgetting about that conservative media is equally bias.
"but he did say that 85-90% of journalists label themselves as liberal. Thus meaning where the true harm can lie."
To "prove" this bullshit conspiracy theory you what they label themselves is one thing..how they do the job is another.
you conservatives love this conspiracy theory stuff. you said the SAME about college profs. again- voting history doesn't mean squat as one would have to study the work and teaching..impossible to do.
@hipstermi what is impossible? Failing people because they disagree with you? It's done, you know. A university in CA removing the rule of impartiality? This stuff is real. If you want to close your eyes to rality, feel free.
"what is impossible? Failing people because they disagree with you?"
You conservatives do this a lot- you "answer" without the quotes.
No, the type of study to PROVE your bullshit conspiracy theory would be impossible. How is a professor "liberal" ? Because he votes Democrat? What about Reagan Democrats?
is he "liberal" because he's ok with pro choice or gay rights? and if he disagrees with one?
THATS whats impossible...for you guys to study and prove this claim.
@zvi303 Yes, I can back it up; I believe it was the State system. I would taken the time to do the research to answer you with specifics if you had appeared to want reasoned discussion. But I don't have time to waste for people who cannot keep a civil tongue in their heads.
@Dimitriox The MSM are supposed to just report the news neutrally and that's what they claim to do but obviously do not. PJTV has never denied their right leanings. From their fb fan page: "PJTV is an Internet TV channel that brings conservative, center-right and libertarian viewers the people, information and opinions that the mainstream media do not want us to hear."
@napsmommy I understand what you say, but at the same time PJTV, when touching this kind of topics should keep it fair and balance, How do I say liberal media is BIAS, without showing the other side of the coin whether or not they are BIAS. Is not about admitting right leaning is about treating a specific topic as it should, Again, I endorse 100% what he says about liberal media (left), but conservative media (right), is not any better, they are equally biased..
@Dimitriox There really isnt a bias unless he is claiming to cover both parties. If its just implying full coverage then its a small bias. The important thing is that nothing is distorted. You can show only one side if you not claiming to show everything. As a viewer I add this with liberalviewer and get a better picture then with just either one of them. Do you think liberalviewer is biased too because he focuses on fox news? Or are you showing little bias yourself. ;)
I endorse your comments about bias media 100%, however you forgot give the other side of the coin, you forgot to show the bias side from conservative media and there's where you fail and shows yourself as bias. However this doesn't change the fact of what your exposed here is true. There's bias media and anchorwoman/man everywhere, you can see this in this video as the anchorman shows one side of the coin, the liberal media, forgetting about that convservative media is equally bias.
So basically Wittle "blames" the media for McCain losing?
You know what else can contribute to that?
MCCAIN's performance. You guys need to learn to take responsibility for your own shortcommings than the conspriacy theory of a "liberal media" (originated from 1990s Newt scripted "talking points")
I would have thought the conservative magical Jesus power could counter any "bias " ;)
The "media" dispatched a team of 30 investigators to Alaska for info on Palin. When the net brings out what the media would not: Obama was born to and raised by Marxists, by their and his own admission, sought out radicals and Marxists in college, by his own admission, and associated with Alinksy-esque "organizers" and former terrorists, nationalizes industries, we dare not suggest he is a socialist, because that makes one racist, retarded and illiterate. Nope. No bias. Just the facts, ma'am.
Hmmm...if you feel that way, why weren't you outraged at Palins' and her hubby's "association" with an Alaskan separatists movement? You know we fought a Civil War over that one?
How about Palin's church? She was associated with a witch hunter Pastor Muthee...a guy who kidnapped a woman for being...witches.
How come Fox, PJ Media or even Whittle didn't mention that?
except for political news. everyone knows they're full of crap"
Can you point to a good news source?
and if you say Fox, you know you will be ridiculed. I mean...editorial editorial editorial...thats all I see on that station. and meltdowns from their talking heads....a lot.
"Editorials? Yeah we have those. You have propaganda, like Madcow, Olberdouche and Chrissy Tingles (and that's just on one station)."
The odd thing is...the MAJORITY of Fox are editorials, even the reporting. Still most the programs seem to be talk show hosts these days.
Not to mention how factually wrong these editorials have been proven time and time again. That and you guys take these editorials as gospel. Look at how much you have cited Beck's fav author.
@thepokkanome - more fair then bias. You evidently do not watch the Democrats on Fox or you would know. O'Reilly was and still is sometimes a real pain in the "pass" when it came from defending Obama on a lot of issues. I got so angry at him for being overly fair I was yelling at the TV and turning him off their for a while.
It's common knowledge that conservatives are idiots with no critical thinking ability. They are led like sheep and just go around repeating the talking points that their fascist masters tell them. I see it all of the time. It's really very sad.
For those of you who don't know, (Paladine71) McCarthyism is dead. Over. Nada. Gone. How ever it seems like it is getting resurrected by the fair and balanced media of this country. Lincoln was a Republican oh wow commies don't know that common knowledge. Did you know McCarthy was a Republican too? Or it isn't your kind of common knowledge? History repeating itself: really,extremely, very, dearly, extremely,um hopelessly sad.
@sikkokid Yes, McCarthy was a Republican. And he was targetting Communists. In fact, he found several of them in your party. You must be so proud that the Communists and Racists were Dems. Try this test, little sheep, look up the Communist Party USA's website on one tab. Then pull up the Democrat Party's website on another. COMPARE THEM to find them almost identical. Next, look up a book called THE NAKED COMMUNIST. Actually read it. Now who is the sheep, fool? You are a "USEFUL IDIOT!"
@Paladine71 Are you saying that guy was truthful? As far as history goes, he brought this country into mass hysteria and fear..the red scare..just like the Salem Witch trials..ever heard of that? You know what a lie is? And I haven't seen this country raise a red flag and take all the money from the rich yet. I don't think it will happen because they rule this country. Universal health care is something that almost all major countries have. Except here.. the land of the rich and thieves.
@sikkokid The difference between McCarthy and Salem is obvious. People were killed at Salem because of accusations that couldn't be proved. McCarthy caught several Communists with proof. It's not a lie to point out what is really there. Back in his day there were Communists here and there in the U.S. government. Today, they ARE the U.S. government. Commies don't take all from the rich, they take it from the middle class and reduce them to peasants. They rule by oligarchy.
@Paladine71 Reputations,lives and careers were ruined by false delusional accusations from McCarthy every time he pointed fingers at his victims. He found a few commies...the rest..or majority were innocent. Capitalism and Communism both aren't good. Capitalism is about having a free market which grants licenses to wealthy educated thieves to steal from the poor and not do time for that, yet pushing for long and harsh prison terms for the common nobody who steals 1000bucks from a bank.
@sikkokid Okay, tell me the names of those that were innocent. But, to be considered innocent you'd have to have no commie or socialist connections at all. If you can prove your accusation, be my guest. All governmental systems have flaws. If give the choice, I'd rather have the ability to compete with those corporations freely and let my own merit decide if I succeed or fail. An "elected" oligarchy is still an oligarchy. This is why the U.S. was founded as a Republic, not a Democracy.
"Okay, tell me the names of those that were innocent. But, to be considered innocent you'd have to have no commie or socialist connections at all. If you can prove your accusation, be my guest"
Guilt by association?
So someone attended one communist party rally when they were 20 in college...that has what do do when they are 50s?
And to be innocent we have to 100% prove someone NEVER had an association...so if I said "no association on record" you will say "not proof he's guilty"
@hipstermi I'll get back to you on this and the other stuff. I'm out of time and have to go to work. Yeah, I know.... Work? You may have to ask your mommy about that one. You've probably heard it mentioned in conversation somewhere.... referring to the peasants, or something....
"I'll get back to you on this and the other stuff. I'm out of time and have to go to work"
You did it again- made up an accusation about me and LIED. This is a common conservative trick- you can't stand on the issues so seek to make up shit. You've never even met me but "assumed" I was a hippie, had long hair, and have "no job"
"Okay, tell me the names of those that were innocent. But, to be considered innocent you'd have to have no commie or socialist connections at all. If you can prove your accusation, be my guest"
This is not how American law works.
You seem like a traitor to the Constitution and this nation.
@Paladine71 So what is the difference? Pretty much almost nothing. The only good thing is you can say what you want (even though the government keeps track of outspoken citizens who are a threat to "national security") The US government is simply big brother and the nsa is already spying on ordinary people so no difference here. Bush started it all and Obama is continuing those "national security" policies so in my opinion it's a no win situation. I'm just saying the rich should stop scamming us
@sikkokid I'm not siding with Republicans or Democrats, both are the same as I've said in earlier posts. They talk a good game and play "good cop, bad cop," but the end results are the same. One party simply moves slower than the other, but in the same direction. Bush didn't start it all, it has been in motion for close to 100 years. I can cite Carter's education takeover, Roosevelt's New Deal, Wilson, etc. etc. Both parties have been infiltrated and taken over.
@Paladine71 well I do agree both parties are dirty. As is almost all of mankind. Both socialism and capitalism have their side effects. Socialism like you said creates oligarchy and servitude. Capitalism may not have those effects here on us but it does indirectly...bailing out banks and catering to the needs of the greedy...being screwed over by banks with no rules..But the ones who feel its full effects are those in Iraq (oil) and Afghanistan(largest lithium deposit found) No win situation
@hipstermi And we are supposed to believe this series of rants is rational? You're kidding right? I don't deal with conspiracies. I deal with fact. Like the fact that you've drank so much of the Olbermann kool-aid that you think up is down. Wow, disconnected is an understatement.
"You're kidding right? I don't deal with conspiracies"
Lie.
Your "Communist Goals" is commonly known as conspiracy theory. You say "it's happened"....you didnt answer any points. PROVE there are "communists" in charge of art art critics. PROVE "commies" control student newspapers.
This is hardly a "liberal" thing: --U.S. acceptance of coexistence as the only alternative to atomic war--
PROVE homosexual rights have anything to do with "commies".
"And we are supposed to believe this series of rants is rational? You're kidding right"
My positions have been more rational than yours. You cussed a lot and claimed I was a "hippie" with long hair.
Conservatives do that a lot- when they cant debate a point, try to use insults and zingers. Works well for O'Reiley and Rush. The not so bright conservatives in the audience forgive them for being factually wrong time and again.
@hipstermi How about you read that little list of goals and tell me how many are in effect today? Damn near all of them. Congratulations, traitor, your side has been successful for some time. Maybe you'll destroy America yet, comrad.
"How about you read that little list of goals and tell me how many are in effect today? Damn near all of them. Congratulations, traitor, your side has been successful for some time. Maybe you'll destroy America yet, comrad."
Much of that list is very generic and many developed under Republicans. It doesnt "prove" anything. It's interesting how cowardly conservatives like you tote that thing but cant explain why those are "communist".
"Hey fool. I'm talking about content, not colors. Put your crayons down and read the damn sites"
Look deeply stupid boy, it's not my fault you can't articulate yourself.
You said "they look the same". You did not say "they read the same" or "the content is the same".
You are repeating right wing talk show hosts (even your author is a Beck fav). You probably heard "the pages look the same" on Beck or Hannity & repeated it. When I proved you wrong, you changed what you "meant".
@Paladine71 Nah, there arent so many "active" muslims but the immigration is way out of control, social security is housing and paying 2500e / month for immigrants, im just thinking and laughing how long till our cash runs out :D
@hipstermi The right seems to suck up to Islam? Oh, you mean like Obama refusing to say Islamic Terrorist (Bush could say it). Or do you mean like the lefties protesting to put a mosque on the graves of 3000 dead Americans? Or do you mean the Obama apology tour that is still going on after nearly two years?
I never said that. You have reading comprehension issues. The religios zelots the right sucks up to are Christians. You know...cause I even mention Palin and her witch hunting church...
curious, do YOU believe in witches? Not wiccans and such...people who really have magical powers.
I personally think it's alright for news stations to have and use bias, but I wish they would just own up to it instead of touting themselves as perfectly neutral. In a perfect world, we could demand no bias, but since it's impossible not to be biased, we should be open about it so viewers aren't getting the wrong impression.
I disagree with Bill when he says that it's wrong to refer to the president as fascist because it trivializes what happened under Nazism. Nazism was just a form of fascism, and the current crony capitalism that we have is very similar to fascism: we pick winners and losers under some auspice of "the greater good."
lots of information from everyone fixes everything. the mainstream news is the problem, world wide, whatever they are bullshiting china with or n. korea or australia, south africa, europe, the americas, fix that force of one side bullshit and stop all our problems by default.
You can complain about media bias all you want, but once she turns her camera off it's fair game. Once she isn't doing her job she can have whatever opinion she wishes.
Secondly if you're trying to argue a claim against media bias, then why does this video show nothing but right wing bias? Are we supposed to pretend that right wing reporters are infallible? Thanks for completely contradicting you're message, if you want to complain about media bias look no further than this video.
@Scotish223332 so I'm guessing you've never watched fox news? Look, unlike you I'm not going to pretend that bias isn't coming from both sides. I stumbled upon this video as I was doing a report for my writing class on media bias. Don't worry the term is called the hostile media effect, it causes you to be clueless blind towards you're own bias. Meaning you're not the only clueless one who thinks statements like this are clever or true. I must warn you though it comes of quite ignorant.
As for your comment, you do realize this is a conservative station, and it is there job as other factions do to show there viewpoint. It is my job as a troll to defend those viewpoints with short and meaningless comments :P
@angst101 He isn't a reporter. He is a commentator. Big difference. Also look at how many left wing news channels there are. ABC, NBC, CBS, MSNBC, CNBC, all 50 CNN channels, shoot even Jon Stewart and Seven Colbert lean heavy to the left. Its a big deal when most high schoolers and college age kids get their news from Jon Stewart. Now look at the right wing cable news networks. Lets see there is fox, and, umm.....well....theres fox.
i guess if we want to pretend that the obama adminstration hasn't come under fire from all sides. The clinton administration had more negative coverage then any other administration. Bush actually at one point had more possitive coverage then any other president, until they didn't find WOMDs.
You claim differently if you want but you're wrong. Quit trying to play the victim. You don't want to solve the problem, you want to point fingers just like the guy in this video.
@angst101 Clinton had more negative coverage than Nixon? I doubt it. I won' t shed a tear for whatever fire the Obama administration receives. I don't even know why he bothered running campaign ads the way nightly news portrayed him. Obama got special treatment and there is no way around it. Kerry didn't get it. Gore didn't get it. Clinton didn't get it. This was the worst case ever as far as the media falling over themselves for a presidential candidate.
i guess i misquoted that a bit. There have been those with more negative coverage, but not as consitantly as Clinton.
The Center for Media and Public Affairs found that Clinton's negative coverage exceeded his possitive coverage in ever quarter of every year of his 2 term presidency- a dubious record that no president before or since has equaled.
Patterson, Thomas E. "The Negative Effect: News, Politics, and the Public." The Hedgehog Review 10.2 (Summer 2008): 46-57.
@angst101 See the difference being, when Bush ran against Gore, Gore was the media sweetheart right up until 911 when Bush actually did something worth being treated well by everyone, at that point the media can't just ignore it they have to report it. also i would add that it is highly believed that what weapons were in iraq were mobile, and were moved to iran during the insurgence that should have been quiet and quick, but ended up getting reported on every second.
You sound brainwashed. What did Bush do to deserve any special treatment. The nazi like patriout act or declaring a invasion on a country? You can tell that you're a diehard fox fan with your conspiracy theory on womd being in Iraq even after that was proven false. Not that you're going to believe me or any other facts anyone tells you. Enjoy your fantasy world, I live in the real one.
@angst101 let me just ask you... what facts are you talking about? How was it proven false? By whom? When? The absence of proof for one side is not the abundance of the other side's proof... being the sophisticated liberal you are you should know that.
you wanna talk nazi like, look at the health care bill!
@angst101 Is it good to know what's happening? yes, but when CNN, ABC, NBC, CBS are giving out vital locations etc and criticizing a republican president for not being open enough it's reached a shit point. Obama has been treated as though he's a savior, really he's closer to the other side of things...
bias exists, but it's on both sides, If you're too stupid to realize this then you have no business in a political debate.
Yes i am a liberal, but I'm not going to waste my time exalting Obama the same way you tried to do with what was probably the worst president in our history Bush. You wonder why Obama is in office, it's because of repbulicans that can't own up to there mistakes..I'm glad to see you guys haven't changed a bit.
I completely agree, both sides should be biased toward one another, but not in news. The news is a place for fact based opinions, not belief driven propaganda.
I'm thinking someone's forgetting about a lump of *expletive here* named jimmy carter.
@angst101 not to mention the big O quickly racing for that coveted worst ever position. He's spent more than years, upon years of presidents before him combined.
I don't wonder why Obama is in office, I know it's because the educational system has turned the American public into a band of sheep racing toward slaughter. Both sides need a tune up. The rich, and i mean truly rich, they pick who wins and loses.. that is what needs to change.
"Its a big deal when most high schoolers and college age kids get their news from Jon Stewart."
I ear conservatives claim this a lot...but like most things they claim, no proof is offered.
You are telling me COMEDY is more popular than news? I bet in the 1980s when Reagan was popular, SNL had more high school and college viewers than any news station. That doesnt mean 80s kids "got their news" from that.
What you should have heard from this is: No side owns the truth, you can only take its side, and Fox is much more often on the side of truth than the mainstream. The truth itself doesn't give two shits about who takes its side, it's YOUR duty to yourself and all things good to seek the truth for yourself, not join a pointless debate consisting of 'Fox vs. CNN/MSNBC/etc'.

Liberal bias in the media, implies that more than half of all the independent and major media outlets are corrupted.
It's a comical notion, because it implies that the majority of media outlets are corrupted while only a chooses few are exempted from said corruption.
Realistically, wouldn't it be the other way around?
With all the forms of broadcasting these days, i've heard the media is becoming more and more the voice of the people. Perhaps, im just naive.

@brainiacgames 'leftists constantly misrepresent the situation as if Fox is the only biased network' - rightists view Fox as objective ('fair & balanced') when it clearly isn't and that all else are biased.

Fox is conservative but that doesn't give them the right to be biased & go unquestioned. Both sides need to keep it fair. That's my point.

You did it again- made up an accusation about me and LIED. This is a common conservative trick- you can't stand on the issues so seek to make up shit. You've never even met me but "assumed" I was a hippie, had long hair, and have "no job"
and yes, I have a full time job.
Typical conservative...acting like a child.

@Paladine71 So what is the difference? Pretty much almost nothing. The only good thing is you can say what you want (even though the government keeps track of outspoken citizens who are a threat to "national security") The US government is simply big brother and the nsa is already spying on ordinary people so no difference here. Bush started it all and Obama is continuing those "national security" policies so in my opinion it's a no win situation. I'm just saying the rich should stop scamming us

@sikkokid I'm not siding with Republicans or Democrats, both are the same as I've said in earlier posts. They talk a good game and play "good cop, bad cop," but the end results are the same. One party simply moves slower than the other, but in the same direction. Bush didn't start it all, it has been in motion for close to 100 years. I can cite Carter's education takeover, Roosevelt's New Deal, Wilson, etc. etc. Both parties have been infiltrated and taken over.

@Paladine71 well I do agree both parties are dirty. As is almost all of mankind. Both socialism and capitalism have their side effects. Socialism like you said creates oligarchy and servitude. Capitalism may not have those effects here on us but it does indirectly...bailing out banks and catering to the needs of the greedy...being screwed over by banks with no rules..But the ones who feel its full effects are those in Iraq (oil) and Afghanistan(largest lithium deposit found) No win situation

Lie.
Your "Communist Goals" is commonly known as conspiracy theory. You say "it's happened"....you didnt answer any points. PROVE there are "communists" in charge of art art critics. PROVE "commies" control student newspapers.
This is hardly a "liberal" thing: --U.S. acceptance of coexistence as the only alternative to atomic war--
PROVE homosexual rights have anything to do with "commies".
Prove the whole list.

Conservatives do that a lot- when they cant debate a point, try to use insults and zingers. Works well for O'Reiley and Rush. The not so bright conservatives in the audience forgive them for being factually wrong time and again.

GOP looks a little closer- RED background, San serif, ALL caps (with some smal caps). Stars on rollover buttons.

I personally think it's alright for news stations to have and use bias, but I wish they would just own up to it instead of touting themselves as perfectly neutral. In a perfect world, we could demand no bias, but since it's impossible not to be biased, we should be open about it so viewers aren't getting the wrong impression.

I disagree with Bill when he says that it's wrong to refer to the president as fascist because it trivializes what happened under Nazism.

You can complain about media bias all you want, but once she turns her camera off it's fair game. Once she isn't doing her job she can have whatever opinion she wishes.
Secondly if you're trying to argue a claim against media bias, then why does this video show nothing but right wing bias? Are we supposed to pretend that right wing reporters are infallible? Thanks for completely contradicting you're message, if you want to complain about media bias look no further than this video.

i guess if we want to pretend that the obama adminstration hasn't come under fire from all sides. The clinton administration had more negative coverage then any other administration. Bush actually at one point had more possitive coverage then any other president, until they didn't find WOMDs.
You claim differently if you want but you're wrong. Quit trying to play the victim. You don't want to solve the problem, you want to point fingers just like the guy in this video.
angst101 1 year ago
@angst101 Clinton had more negative coverage than Nixon? I doubt it. I won' t shed a tear for whatever fire the Obama administration receives. I don't even know why he bothered running campaign ads the way nightly news portrayed him. Obama got special treatment and there is no way around it. Kerry didn't get it. Gore didn't get it. Clinton didn't get it. This was the worst case ever as far as the media falling over themselves for a presidential candidate.
jimbo525SE 1 year ago
@jimbo525SE
i guess i misquoted that a bit. There have been those with more negative coverage, but not as consitantly as Clinton.
The Center for Media and Public Affairs found that Clinton's negative coverage exceeded his possitive coverage in ever quarter of every year of his 2 term presidency- a dubious record that no president before or since has equaled.

@angst101 See the difference being, when Bush ran against Gore, Gore was the media sweetheart right up until 911 when Bush actually did something worth being treated well by everyone, at that point the media can't just ignore it they have to report it. also i would add that it is highly believed that what weapons were in iraq were mobile, and were moved to iran during the insurgence that should have been quiet and quick, but ended up getting reported on every second.
