Yes, Republicans dominate the radio.
And yet the Democrats, for years and years, have dominated the television and other news media (i.e. Newspapers, magazines)
Look at CNN, NBC, CBS, the New York Times, ect. The media is definitly Liberal!
Yes, I can safely say that Fox News is somewhat Republican bias and the Wall Street Journal is a Conservative publication.

Of course, this news media (STV World News) is Republican biased! Yay!
Go GOP! Keep that Republican bias here!

Actually, no. I'm very active in politics, and do alot of research on things. And since I'm the mod of this forum, and also an admin, I sometimes tend to scare people, and they won't argue. Which is exactly what I don't want. I believe that you learn the most when debating things with people who have the exact opposite beliefs as yourself, as long as that person uses viable sources, and doesn't just spout propoganda.
Yes, I am a Republican, mainly because of the crap that the Dems have been pulling as of late, (last 20 or so years), but I never vote solely on party lines. If the best candidate is a Democrat, or an Independant, I'll vote for them over the Republican. It just sickens me that for most people politics is more important than the welfare of the country.
The media was all pro-Bush directly after 9/11, but see how it now blames him for it? Like he was the only one reading all of these reports, or better yet, out there in the field himself. I mean really, come on, let's think a little.
I work for the mayor here, and he's a Democrat. Sometimes I see him actually concerened for the people, but then sometimes it's all about party. If political positions weren't allowed to be careers, we'd be a whole lot better off. Watch the move, "The Distinguished Gentleman", (Eddie Murphy), yes, it's a comedy, a spoof, but sadly, a lot of it is too true.

^That's the point. It's not. When you constantly only report one side of an issue, you are not informing the public, which is the news media's job.

Well, it's more getting facts, I guess, but it's not Liberal, like CNN--well, I guess it's more "Fair and Balanced," like Fox News.

What? Fox is fair and balanced. CBS is the second most Liberal next to CNN. How are they "in on it together?" CBS is way Liberal, Fox has a slite Republican bias...A SLITE one, mind you...Don't make claims like that without at least SOME facts.
