You ever wonder why
the news media, other than FOXNews, is considered to be 'liberal'? This is a label slapped on them by those who don't like what and how they report. This same 'liberal media' makes up the vast majority of our war correspondence, our White House and congressional correspondence and our daily news briefings that cover every area of foreign affairs and domestic policy, and it all airs or streams twenty-four hours a day, every day of the year. These reporters are professionals, whose jobs are defined by looking at and reporting on what really happens, day in and day out. It could be argued that it is members of the news media that are the most qualified to pick a side. Not recognizing that, is like being 'surprised' that professional athletes come from the ranks of well coordinated people, or that computer repairmen are overwhelmingly nerds who've studied electronics. Some things are just obvious, if you look at 'why'. You could get your news from those professionsals, OR, you can get your 'news' from an organization that is the propaganda wing of a conservative political party, which is the easy way to confirm pre-existing opinions. Tough choice...
