UMMMM, CBS is easily one of, if not the most liberal media outlet around... you're the one thats out of touch. The others definitely lean left, especially MSNBC.

Don't try and give me any lines about the media being balanced.

[quote:ebb32]we think of liberals being the caring, concerned, compassionate people who strive for social equality and fairness. So how do the anti-government/bush protests fit into that mold? [/quote:ebb32]
so opposing a unjustified, unneccesary war is not fitting in with the stereotype you just claimed ? Anti-War = Anti Bush, Bush = War In Iraq. Simple connection really. gaurentee if Gore were in office, their would be no "War In Iraq" right now.

I never said they're wrong to state their opinions. I'm just saying that MTV leans to the left when it comes to politics and celebrities. you can't deny that MTV shows liberal views.

so, fox news pours out conservative views, I really fail how you see the liberal media havign some sort of advantage. + From what I have seen of mtv, i hardly would consider it a propagANDA for the liberal agenda.[/quote:382a9]

are you fucking kidding me ?
CNN, ABC, NBC, CBS, MSNBC.. Liberal ? what is this some sort of conspiracy thoery against the conservative America ? gimme a break man. Your turning into a paranoid Rumm's here.[/quote:382a9]
oOo: Do you get these channels where you live? Have you ever read the USA Today? Believe me, they swing hard left. There was a website that I remember seeing linked during the 2000 election that matched quotes from CNN anchors and personas that were verbatim or nearly verbatim from DNC press releases.

So now your claiming to be the out spoken minority ? please. You do know companies LIKE General Electirc own these companies. Would it not be in the best intrest of a company who manufacters arms for the military to not promote a agenda which will allow them to manufacter more arms ? Thus motivating them to promote a conservative agenda ?. They are not left wing bias.

If Gore had been in office, we'd probably have more burning buildings while he's still trying to fix things with hugs.

Holy shit, I don't want this to end in flaming, because you and I tend to do so due to your absolute REFUSAL to even TRY to acknowledge facts.
But please, please, drop the television issue. You clearly have absolutely no clue what you are talking about.
