I came across a blog entry on a new economics paper: http://www.economistsdoitwithmodels.com/causal-friday-the-most-depressing-instrument-ever-fox-news-edition/ It purports to show that watching Fox News makes people more likely to vote Republican (rather than Republican voters being more...

Apparently he's comparing himself to Wikileaks, and saying he has "hundreds of hours" of video tape he's about to release. So we'll see how edited this **** becomes. He's going to release such bombshells as: As if that wasn't Fox's *********** platform for the last 8 years. It'll probably be...

Seems like the main outlets like BBC,CNN,are wrong mainly on Syria. Reporter who speaks Arabic goes to Syria 6 times and talks with the average Syrian and goes to Aleppo 4 times. What she uncovers is outright media bias against the Russians and Assad as it is proven time and again that the US...

I am, even though I have never supported him to be anything other than a side kick for a late night talk show host. Would the media handle things differently if he were a Republican? I think so. Yuk.

The end comes for Brian Williams and his "conflating" the fact that he was actually NOT on a helicopter hit by an RPG. http://news.yahoo.com/nbc-news--brian-williams-recants-story-iraq-helicopter-after-soldiers-protest-231038729.html Should I be more surprised that a journalist would lie or...

A Phoenix woman is accused of throwing a shoe at Hillary Clinton at a Las Vegas convention appearance on Friday. The shoe was thrown from a distance of about sixty feet and missed its intended target. The thirty-six-year-old woman was then arrested by Secret Service agents and turned over to Las...

Inside the campaign: How Mitt Romney stumbled Can't wait for the tell-all book(s), once Romney loses. :D

Rainy day off! Here's a thread I had hoped to start several weeks ago, but wasn't able before taking off for blueberry season. Back in 2008 Glenn Beck had an interesting regular feature on his radio show: "Battle of the Headlines". In order to get my news and weather during August I had to...

ABC's Brian Ross an alleged journalist "reporter" attempted to smear the Tea Party with the Batman shooting betraying its inherent liberal bias by simply finding the name John Holmes listed as a Tea Party member. Ross had to eat crow on that journalistic coup which he simply drummed up by...

Anti-Muslim activist and frequent Fox News guest has posted one of the most incoherent drug-induced rants I've ever seen by a public pundit: (via LGF) :dl:

http://www.businessinsider.com/fox-news-barack-obama-attack-ad-2012-5#ixzz1wU3YoctF I can hear it now, "But...but...but...CNN does this stuff!" Like pro wrestling managers who "have no idea" that the wrestler brought an illegal foreign object into the ring, Fox News "management" knew...

So Michele Bachmann said that Bill Maher said things just as bad about her as Rush said about Fluke, and where is the uproar. On Starting Point on CNN this morning, Soledad O'Brian admitted that what Maher said could not be repeated on CNN. I can't find the thing referred to, unless it's the...

Recently the publisher of Atlanta Jewish Times, Andrew Adler, called for Obama's assassination on the grounds of his not being pro-Israel enough. The really notable thing is the media reaction though, namely how comparatively muted it is. If an American publisher of Taiwanese or Polish...

Watching the debate on CNN the other night, it was incredible to me how they seemed to wish Ron Paul weren't there. He was barely mentioned during the AC360 post-debate coverage; according to someone online, he was mentioned twice by name, tied with Rick Perry. In comparison, Newt Gingrich was...

A new study claims that the media gives a more favourable opinion of Republican politicians. http://www.journalism.org/analysis_report/cr

I sat down last night to watch some of the new "Fox News North", SunTV during it's debut special. The first image I see is all a collage of the Mohammed cartoons. I have to admit that caused me to laugh pretty hard. Ezra faced some hysterical actions from the Human Rights Commission for printing...

An NPR exec just fell for a James O'Keefe stunt, apparently, and in my opinion, this is perfectly timed to be used as ammunition in the NPR defunding fight that's going on right now. With the way Congress has reacted to this sort of thing in the past, I'd be very surprised if NPR is funded at...

We've heard this debate time and time again. Violence in the movies? Is that portraying life or does life take it cues from art? We've all heard that the mainstream media is left-biased. Yes, CNN, CBS, NBC, CBS, MSNBC all lean left. (Quick example. It wasn't uncommon that when gas prices...

I have a "Turn off Fox News" bumper sticker on my car. My friend, Scott, asked my "Why?" Scott is more conservative than I am. He claims I'm a liberal b/c I think of things before rendering judgement. He doesn't follow in lock-step the war cries of Hannity and Rush, but, he doesn't think...

Someone has used this survey to demonstrate liberal bias in the media: http://www.mediaresearch.org/biasbasics/biasbasics3.asp My contention is that just because they vote democrat doesn't mean that they let their opinions color their reporting. Nor does it influence what stories they get...

http://articles.cnn.com/2010-09-15/politics/primary.bill.maher_1_bill-maher-savior-s-alliance-election?_s=PM:POLITICS Bill Maher: O'Donnell's win is good for the Democrats Comedian Bill Maher says he's happy Tea Party favorite Christine O'Donnell won Delaware's GOP primary for U.S. Senate on...

BBC director admits BBC's "massive bias to the left". (Obscure Monty Python Reference about IQ tests) I wonder if we'll get other confessions from other networks, like an AA meeting: -"My name is ABC and I'm a liberal." -"Hi, ABC! I'm Newsweek. When I was a liberal, I came up with the...

From the CNN story: So whenever a politician is on Fox News, we have to keep in mind that "fair and balanced" actually means unabashedly partisan. Lest there be any doubt what the RGA is, this is from their own website: and

ATTORNEY GENERAL ERIC HOLDER: "States and local governments can certainly help the federal government enforce immigration laws. What we're saying is that they cannot pass laws that are inconsistent with the federal laws, or do things that contravene federal policy when it comes to the...

Andrew Breitbart has 100,000 dollars and a pledge of confidentiality for the full JournoList archive. If anyone here is on that list and would enjoy the irony of a tea party bigwig paying for their porsche, here's your chance.

From LGF: Here and Here

The UK National Health Service reports of possible media bias on reporting results of the INTERPHONE Study Group, supported by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) at the World Health Organization. The research in question was a well-conducted analysis of several international...

Not a big thing. But an annoying one, in the wake of the Brown election. Did you notice every time a Republican wins, it's all about anger, irrationality, getting-back-at so-and-so, etc. -- but when a Democrat wins, it's all about peace 'n' love 'n' hope 'n' change?

I have noticed a few things lately. First of all I have heard that the mainstream media knew that John Edwards was screwing someone he was not married to and said nothing about it. (while running for president -- if that is not a big deal to you, I would like to discuss this) I also know that...
