Unlike your liberal ideology, conservatism is a way of life....that is what confuses you liberals so, you just have no clue when it comes to us conservatives and every time you try to think what we are thinking, you fail miserably because we live our beliefs, and you are told yours....Well, I'll give you a few points for honesty.Thanks!!And you're a Talk Radio Conservative.You're a LWNJ.....I'm a left-leaning Independent, I was in "the media" for nearly 20 years, and I can tell you unequivocally that (a) the surveys that indicate about 85% of journalists are liberal sound about right to me, and (b) news from major national media is presented with a left-leaning slant more often than not.For 20+ years I've been listening to Republicans cry like little girls about "The Liberal Media" After looking into this for awhile, I finally found out just "The Liberal Media" is: The Liberal Media is any media outlet that tells Republicans something they don't want to hear. Cases In Point:
* When CNN, MSNBC ABC, NBC, and CBS covered countless hours of Hillary Clinton being grilled about the situation in Benghazi, Republicans seemed fine with this, but when these same media outlets caught Mrs. Trump plagiarizing Mrs. Obama's speech they became "The Liberal Media"
* When CNN, MSNBC ABC, NBC, and CBS covered countless hours of Hillary Clinton being grilled about her emails , Republicans seemed fine with this, but when these same media outlets caught Donald Trump showing his ignorance about the Russia -Ukraine situation they became "The Liberal Media"
* When CNN, MSNBC ABC, NBC, and CBS grilled Bill Clinton about his affair with Monica Lewinsky, as well as the hours of impeachment proceedings Republicans seemed fine with this, but when these same media outlets caught G.W. Bush or his people lying about those weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, they became "The Liberal Media"
* When CNN, MSNBC ABC, NBC, and CBS spent countless hours questioning John Kerry about his military service, Republicans seemed fine with this, but when these same media outlets caught The Reagan administration illegally funneling money in the Iran-Contra mess they became "The Liberal Media"
...and the list goes on. Republicans have complained about "Liberal Bias" for so long, it's now been accepted as fact. The reality is media outlets are after stories that boost their ratings, and don't care who they exploit to do so. Republicans...you can keep crying about "The Liberal Media" if you want, but it just ain't so!

It's done in myriad ways, from story placement to burying the lead to purposely providing an unbalanced view to injecting opinion to ignoring facts to simple distortion to whether a story is even covered at all.
That's about all I have to say on this topic, because I know your opinion on this isn't going to be changed.
