What liberal media? (article)

" In recent times, the right has ginned up its " liberal media "

propaganda machine. Books by both Ann Coulter and Bernard Goldberg

have topped the bestseller lists, stringing together a series of

charges so extreme that, well, it's amazing neither one thought to

accuse " liberals " of using the blood of conservatives' children for

extra flavor in their soy-milk decaf lattes. "

 

" Much of the public believes a useful but unsupportable myth about

the so-called liberal media, and the media themselves have been cowed

by conservatives into repeating their nonsensical nostrums virtually

nonstop. As the economist/pundit Paul Krugman observes of Republican

efforts to bully the media into accepting the party's Orwellian

arguments about Social Security privatization: " The next time the

administration insists that chocolate is vanilla, much of the media--

fearing accusations of liberal bias, trying to create the appearance

of 'balance'--won't report that the stuff is actually brown; at best

they'll report that some Democrats claim that it's brown. "

Dave4,

 

I recently ran across a PDF wall chart of " who owns the nest " that I thought

you might appreciate having. Since we can't do attachments to the group,

I'll send it to you privately. After seeing the facts of ownership, I know

that anyone who talks about the " liberal media " is just talking thru their

hat.

ps. " The liberal media " is just one more lie in the political arena started

by Ronald Reagan 24 years ago. This single piece of info debunks the whole

lie.

DaveO, you mind if I get a look-see at that .pdf? If it's too much a

bother, then no worries mate.

 

Cheers,

Hey could you send that to me too? With me working in the media, I'd be

interested to see what it had to say.
