What’s funny is the argument for this during the past eight years was that the Republicans were in power.

Andrea Mitchell went from Sen. Olympia Snowe to Mitt Romney toRep. Cantor in a row. I gave up and turned on the History Channel.

Read Media Matters. They predicted stuff like this would happen, just as it did when Clinton was in office. I haven’t watched cable news since the inauguration.

More proof of the conservative media bias.(I’m not giving up.)

Yeah… but some of those Republicans have a liberal bias… so there.

I’ve noticed that the “media personnel” are more smirking in their expressions than the recently Gone to Texas George W. Bush always managed to be. Is this how they’re handling Obama’s overwhelming victory? If so, it just makes them look constipated. Andrea Mitchell makes me sick, as she tries to convince us that she’s not biased when she’s married to Alan Greenspan! And Joe Scarborough? LOL!

Andrea Mitchell is married to two guys? That’s not legal, is it?

LOL! Sorry to confuse you! But, let’s give Andrea credit for a tiny bit of sense. Given the choice, she’d probably stick with Alan, even if Joe was available, and the last time I heard Joe reference his wife, he seemed to be rather fearful.
Bob, that statistic is fairly worthless. You and I both know that the bigger story here is that the Republicans are the minority (practically nonexistent) party, and it was during these days that President Obama was preparing to meet with Republican leaders regarding his stimulus package. The media wanted to know what Repub leaders were thinking; the OBVIOUS decision is to talk with them live.Let me give you a scenario where the stats would be reversed. Let’s say President Obama has a bill he wants rushed through congress in its purest state, but there are rumblings that the Democratic leaders of the house want to make changes. There is a “battle” brewing between the two. Who do you think the media is going to interview?I have included a link here, which will also be posted in an article I am writing on my site. The link is a story written by a journalist who definitely disagrees with you. Here it is:http://abcnews.go.com/Business/Story?id=6099188&page=1

Don’t give up. There *is* a media bias.The bias is really a corporatist one. The democrats they interview or invite to appear are also from the corporatist ranks. Occasionally the have Ted Kennedy or Chris Dodd, but that is relatively rare.Corporations control the government and the media so we get to hear the corporate ass kissers.
