Many studies have shown that on average, in the US at least, over 80% of the medias by their own admission take the liberal point of view. Therefor, when small stories get out in the press from 20% of their conserv. colleagues, in the past they've been able to bury the story. They've got to cover it, initially, otherwise their liberalness is too naked. So they maintain the veneer of being "fair." And being in the majority, THEY are the ones to decide what they think the public should be thinking about. <br /><br />However, blogs, etc. allow people to go over their heads and say "no, you will NOT shut us up, you WILL cover this issue, you are NOT given a free pass that *your* way is not only the right way, but the *only* way."<br /><br />Those days are dead and gone, and they can't stand not being in control.gemoftheoceanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05521207668262592414noreply@blogger.com
