I didn't see you post any research supporting your argument, just a gigantic pile of nonsensical suppositions, which were easily rebutted by offering a one sentence counter-point. Do you have anything? Let me guess, no? All the studies about it are bullshit and you're right because your credentials are? Smoking marijuana? YouTube university? What? You would have done well to abandon such a ridiculous argument. |
If you care to look outside the liberal media bias echo chamber you can easily find many studies that shows no real bias, slight conservative bias or slight liberal bias. As one would imagine, when looking at metastudies, the various bias outlets balance each other out and there is virtually no net bias in overall media. This is not to say that there are not liberal leaning and conservative leaning news outlets, but the notion that there is a clear liberal slant in media as a whole is not supported by facts.
Since you obviously will ask again. Here's one exapmple of a study of coverage of the 2012 presidential campaign and who got more positive and negative mention in the news media:

So, no one had less favorable coverage than Obama, does that mean the media has a conservative bias? No, it only shows that in 2012 Obama got a lot of negative coverage. In reality, media has a much stronger finacial bias than political bias, they will report to fit the 'general mood' of their consumers.
