The media is so fucking liberal.
So liberal that the lead actor from the #1 movie this summer is running for Governor as a goddamn Republican.

The rightists can just shove it. Hollywood is bought and paid for by conservative interests.

3. Um, most people realize this as an exception
I'm not going to argue but get real. If you want to say talk radio is Conservative you have a point but Hollywood? The AMA is buying Bush but Dean is a liberal. That doesn't make Doctors all liberal.

4. The tides have turned on us in the media
I'll have to admit we had the control... mainly during the CNN monopoly on cable news. The right has made a huge power move in the past couple of years though.

5. liberal media is repuke bullshit
Edited on Wed Aug-06-03 09:56 PM by RainDog
I'll go get a clip, but you really should read this study about the bias of repukes versus the greater balance from "liberals."

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A20093-2003Aug5.html

"A new Harvard study says the conservative editorial pages are more intensely partisan, and far less willing to criticize a Republican administration than the liberal pages are to take on a Democratic administration. "

8. I don't know if Hollywood is bought and paid for by the conservatives
that seems a bit too far. I do think that many in Hollywood have sucked up to Bush since 9/11.
