And you don't know how to read the media. Every time you see a global warming propaganda article? That's all about wealth redistribution

Outsourcing is also wealth redistribution. Leftists hate America and they love seeing the communist Chinese getting our factories and technology. Goes hand in hand with tying our hands with the global warming hysteria so they can get more of our jobs

And every time you see a propaganda article about the "hands up don't shoot" lie, that's a stab at the incarceration rate of blacks, who commit more crimes and therefore get into more altercations with the police per capita

Etc etc etc

Maybe things have changed in the four years since this was written.

There are aspects that are liberal, there are aspects that are conservative.
Admittedly, most of the aspects are liberal.

I will also say that there are few things more amusing than some RW radio host (Radio is media right?) WHINING about "The media is liberal" when THEY are part of the fucking media.

Fortunately for them, most of their listeners are too fucking STUPID to figure that out.

But anyone who's not named Pinochet is a leftist.

That is some seriously good shit you got in the bong, there, bruv.

But let's track this; "anytime you see a global warming propaganda article? That's all about wealth redistribution."

Great fantasy! Good on you, sir.

But now for facts and reality, sorry to disappoint;

It's actually Wealth Maldistribition to begin with. Stealing the ever greater margin of increased productivity from workers is not "redistribution" but outright theft from people who work for a living.

That's the reality, sorry/not sorry to pop your balloon, there.

They are huge stories that do get some time but not much and almost never in depth. I've never seen ALEC mentioned on TV MSM or covered much at all with any substance.

Otherwise, the whole idea and the very concept of a so-called 'liberal media' is pure mythology and has been a concerted propaganda effort to a large degree, corporate and by the right and since WWII.

Only the most ludicrous of right wing Americans would ever say something like that. Anywhere else in the First World and most people would be stifling their chuckles - while ultra-right wingers would be cringing.

May I take this opportunity to observe that you are a looneybins, Bosco?

Mostly, the left-wing media that does exist focuses on how right-wing America is.

Yes, but as long as we all keep responding, he will be happy.

Very few of you howlers make any sense or have the ability to address a topic. For that very reason most of you obsess over me, constantly try to make me the topic out of sheer desperation, thread after thread

I would be much happier if you loons quit "responding"

They definitely are not and never have been for over 30+ years, and actually not before then, either.

The media have a long history of being anti-labor, to start with.

The "liberal media" is a grand fallacy, is what it is.

CNN or MSNBC or whoever else have interest in selling high-priced adverts, just like Fox or anyone else.

All media you see on TV and most that searches lead you to on the internet are owned by media conglomerates, and they have the same single interest that any other mega-corporation does.

The ongoing incestual relationships* between corporations' board of governors, -including media corporations-, militates against relating news of any underlying consequence, but 'scandal!' and 'political implications!' we have in abundance.

*(This CEO is on the board of another company, their CEO is on the board of this company, etc.)

It doesn't matter whether 'right' or 'left,' the media will insist on turning everything possible into a politic matter, thereby cutting off any argument of intrinsic merit at the knees and dividing people from the outset, before it gets any further.
