Your Turn! Program the Liberal Media.

OK. Let's pretend for a moment that the television media is really politically biased to favor Liberal ideals and policies. What would be on Liberal TV? What would be showing on the three free networks if they were run by Liberals?

In another thread earlier today, I wrote:

"If there were a liberal media bias, there would be a Roots-style multi-night miniseries about FDR and the New Deal on ABC, NBC or CBS right now. Everyone would know the names of all of the players."

I have made similar statements to republickers before. They have no response. Rather, they just run off on a tangent as usual. Run away, silly Republicker!

Anyways, I'll start. If the media were biased, "The Power Of Nightmares" would be on The ABC Movie Of The Week once a year.

Now, you try it! This list can also be useful as a reference when confronted with the "Liberal Media" lie.













The Corporate controlled media is our greatest enemy. The current structure of the Corporate controlled conservative media must be destroyed.
