Origin of supposed "liberal media bias"?

2010-11-09 11:46 am
why do these white people claim that all media except for Fox has a liberal bias? Could it be that the mainstream media supported the Civil Rights Movement and they didn't?
更新1:

why do republican whites claim the media is biased for liberals? on what issues exactly?

更新2:

I am referring to the statement that ABC CBS NBC CNN all have a liberal bias, not the print media

更新3:

uh the Civil Rights Movement has never ended, it is still going on presently. Obviously Republicans are on the opposite side of this movement, and they claim the media is liberal because they support it

I am not sure who or where this myth started, but it has been debunked several times in several ways.

At this point, only the truly gullible (Fox watchers) still believe the lie.

Yes, that's exactly why. It has nothing whatsoever to do with almost 90% of journalists who admit to a party affiliation are Democrats.

no.there were only 3 main stream tv outlets during that movement. abc,cbs,nbc. and the democrats were the ones fighting it.

That is B.S and you know it. You are using the same tactics we get from that kind of news media all the time. You take a few idiots that should remain silent for their own good, and make generalized statements according to those few. I agree there are a few azz clowns on our side, but then again I don't appreciate you making those kind of remarks about me. When you say things like that you are including me, and that is furthest thing from the truth.

I have raised 4 children that have friends that are from all colors and creeds and nationalities, and I have many friends with whom I would give my life for who are Black. I have a very dangerous job and I cannot afford to choose who I think will be suitable racially for my safety, and have to choose Men who have given the same commitment to the job I have. A few of these same Men share Thanksgiving Dinner with my Wife and I and our children. So you can take your assertions and shove them completely up your AZZ. ................

I will assert that you Sir are the racist against Whites in general, and I have met some Black Men who are racists but I never allowed them to shape my opinions about other Men. We are just Men and you are the one who is making the distinction of color and crying foul..........................

There is a liberal bias in the media, although it's not as brutally obvious as the liberal bias in academia, though they both exist for the same reason: it's simply that careers in the Media and Academia just don't tend to interest Conservatives, we preffer to become lawyers or businessmen, we want to go out and seek our fortune, and not spend the rest of our lives serving, informing and educating other people.

Those types of career tend to appeal more to Liberals, which is why they end up dominating those areas.

There are 5 main media corporations and 4 are strongly liberal. it has nothing to do with civil rights, thats pretty moronic to say. Fox news wasnt even around then and if they were than they must of been for it more than any other since it was Republicans who favored civil rights more.

"Reality has a well known liberal bias." Stephen Colbrert

It is based on a single study which examined the political beliefs of minor employees of the news stations.


The real reality is that all urban areas are 'liberal", in that anyone living in an urban area must tolerate a rather diverse group of people in order to earn a living or function. Unlike rural areas, it is impossible to live your life never encountering those who aren't exactly like you. So news produced in any major city reflects this, unless it is deliberately skewed to appeal to conservatives.

Orthodox Jews, try as they might, must interact with others, while the Amish can keep it to a minimum.

the priority is that, for some reason, the term "liberal" has grow to be a grimy notice. in case you seem it up interior the dictionary, even although, you will learn that to be liberal potential to choose progression or reform. i do no longer see why this is undesirable. united statesa. grew to become into designed for substitute. The founders did no longer have faith for a 2nd that the guidelines they set forth could continually be pertinent, and due to this they positioned a technique into place via which we, the persons, can regulate them. yet I digress. The media does not choose one political celebration or the different. that is basic to think of it does, once you're a member of the political celebration this is receiving an excellent style of criticism for its modern-day regulations and practices. while the media comments that criticism, the media is, in turn, criticized for having the audacity to declare that protesters are amassing outdoors Bush's ranch in Texas, or for reporting the persisted deaths in Iraq. it style of sounds like those to the intense actual in this us of a could like that the media lie and say that Iraq is now a completely-functioning democratic republic basically like ours. I decide to pay attention the reality. we are making an investment an excellent style of money interior the Iraqis. i could choose to pay attention whether that is properly worth it or no longer.
