Press: Give Up The Pretense, Wait You Kinda Have…

September 14, 2009 / 10:13 am • By Dr. Melissa Clouthier

I’m waiting for the public announcement by CNN saying that they want to clarify their editorial perspective and that they’re biased to the left. Wouldn’t that be freeing for everyone? Stop the pretending to be objective and just clearly state a bias. It’s not like they’re even attempting to report unfavorable Obama news.

Imagine biased press conferences. On the one side, the conservative press people. On the other side, the liberal. The President could go back and forth between the sides and people could see the difference between the questions. They could decide who to listen to. They could decide who is fair.

They would also see 80% of the press line up on one side which is why the press has numbers like what Don Surber reports: Only 19% of people believe the press is fair.

So, they’re already considered biased. Why not make the covert overt and be done with it?

    Has Fox come out and said it is biased? Just curious?

    Actually Fox is pretty Liberal as far as everything I’ve seen. What they do differently is actually REPORT on things that make Libs look bad, and not totally ignore them.

    They carry WAY to much AP stuff too, especially on their website. And we all know how Conservatively biases AP is, right?
