Examining the "Liberal Media" Claim

There is some lying going on here but I am not the one doing it. I doubt that you even read the article or realized that it was 14 years old when you posted it. Now you are just trying to direct the attention away from your latest blunder by calling me a liar. Typical RV post. Get back on topic.

No, here's what they say the findings of the study are.

Quote:The findings include:

On select issues from corporate power and trade to Social Security and Medicare to health care and taxes, journalists are actually more conservative than the general public.

Journalists are mostly centrist in their political orientation.

The minority of journalists who do not identify with the "center" are more likely to identify with the "right" when it comes to economic issues and to identify with the "left" when it comes to social issues.

Journalists report that "business-oriented news outlets" and "major daily newspapers" provide the highest quality coverage of economic policy issues, while "broadcast network TV news" and "cable news services" provide the worst.
