Now, please show YOUR examples of right-wing media bias. BEcause, afterall, I assume that you made this thread in an attempt to show that Liberal bias does not exist yet, right-wing bias does(since, you did attack fox). So, link your examples.
No thats not what this thread is about. It is about exposing the left wing bias that everyone claims there is in US media. There are plenty of threads exposing the right wing bias of Fox News and others. Your attempt to change the subject is a classic right wing ploy.. so please spare me. Show me clear bias by ABC, CNN, NBC, CBS and others towards the left.

As for you link.

GWB's military record was never investigated by any media in any detail, and thanks to, I grant you, a serious cluster **** by CBS and Dan Rather, the whole issue was basicly taboo. Now was this cluster **** based on bias by CBS and Dan Rather against GWB or wanting to get out the story before others? Considering that CBS has no clear policy to favor the democrats, then I must conclude that either Dan Rather is biased or plain old stupid enough not to check sources as getting out the story took priority.

However that does not mean bias.. in fact I would claim, NOT investigating the obvious issues with his record, is in fact right wing bias by the media.. or fear of repercussion by the authorities.

Again, show us where the clear obvious left wing bias is in the mass media in the US. Give us examples, since you and others are the ones ranting about how left wing the US media world is.

Is there examples where a major news organisation has promoted the Democrats over Republicans or openly admitted favor for the left? Or examples where presenters have given easy questions to Democrats, but hounded Republicans?

Show us the examples.
