Keep up the effort... regardless of how you say it...
The liberal media only reports pukin Kennedy's when it will expose them the least... i.e. low priority exposure... short spots... back page... and they don't re-report the same negative double-talk and psycho-babble repeatedly over several days or weeks as they do for Rush and Arnold and Wayne LaPierre. They also don't label their left-wing targets with epithets and call them stupid or liars or other such descriptions.
When has the liberal media publically "sneered and smeared" Jesse Jackson as an immoral philanderer and in all likelihood an embezzler of Rainbow Coalition Funds... just for one example?
The Liberals on this thread would not agree with you if you presented them with perfect langauge and eloquence or even ABSOLUTE PROOF, but press on Carbiner, knowing that you are being read by a number of good folks with the honor and self-respect to accept when they are off-base or just plain wrong...

Pointer,
1) I do consider myself a liberal (I've never tried to hide that fact, here or elsewhere). However, I have no particular sympathy for Patrick Kennedy and his current problems.
2) carbiner needs to substantiate his claim or retract it; I'll even accept verification from you or anybody else who feels they should come to his assistance. It's the same standard expected of everybody else here, myself included. This isn't a terribly complex concept to grasp.
This is becoming very tiresome, but is a great illustration of the pitfalls of bias and ideology.

If the media is as liberally biased as some people believe, I would have expected them to have a field day with Right-Wing Dope Fiend/Loudmouth/Fat Pig HeadRush Limbaugh, and recent settlement of his drug charges in Palm Beach county.
One would expect a liberally biased media to at least ask the question whether Rush would call for his own incarceration, as he believes should be done with drug addicts.
I do believe that a news organizations stance is strongly affected by the views of the owner of said organization, resulting in a biased view.

handy, I've never seen anyone substantiate anything for you except another reason to keep arguing.
redworm, pick up a copy of the Washington Times, and a copy of the Washington Post. One is bent to the left, and one is bent to the right, you tell me which. Leif, you do the same, but with an open mind.
Pointer, your absolutely right!
If liberal propaganda were so easy to expose, this thead would not exsist, nor would it need to.
Like I said before, I've never yet found a liberal who will admit to liberal media bias, tht says most of it right there. I have never found anyone who stand by the mainstream media so close as a liberal will.
Lets just observe the general media as we approach voting day this year.

Unsubstantiated or not... I leave that to Carbiner... but I've read Handy's threads and posts... and you cannot convince me that he isn't a left-winger.
In only one post... you have just proven every point I made above...
The Liberal media did have a field day with Limbaugh!
Janet Reno's incompetence at Waco, or Bill Clinton's manifold offenses... (He did in Bosnia what Bush did in Afganistan and Iraq... and the Liberal media didn't even "squeek"...
The whole process and recent settlement was, by far, more punishing to Rush, than it would have been to ANY other "offender". Especially Teddy or any other Kennedy.
And the Liberal media knew that, from the beginning, all the way through their persecution of Limbaugh...giving that subject FAR more "air/print time" than was ever given to the various Kennedy's for their real or alleged offenses...
They did this ONLY because Rush was a major adversary to their propanganda...
Of course, whatever difference in the volume of reporting that may have existed couldn't have anything to do with the fact that prior to the incident in question, pretty much nobody outside of Rhode Island had heard of Patrick Kennedy, whereas Rush Limbaugh has been a national figure for many years now, could it?
They do have to sell those papers, now ...
The same old insulting, ridiculous crap from you clowns. Anyone and everyone who doesn't immediately agree with your largely baseless prejudices will be labeled and ignored.
If the conservatives are taking a beating lately, it must be because their most ardent supporters share the IQ and manners of you two. If you can't support your own rhetoric on a discussion board that tolerates you, how do you expect to actually influence average people.
You guys would have better luck with subsistance level farming and starting your own nation state in North Dakota. Your ability to interact with free people is lacking.

redworm, your wrong.
CNN a liberal network is getting it's butt handed to them by FOX. Fox allows conservatives and traditional thinking Americans to express they're view more often.
And, America is hungry for traditional conservative veiws and news.
All the conservative talk shows have grown over the last ten years, while the major liberal newspapers such as NYT, LA times, have lost readers. The funny thing is, the talk show hosts are never afraid to say they're conservative and that they offer a conservative point of view, WHY? SIMPLE! Because thats what and who traditional America is, and we love it!

handed to them how? ratings? what are the numbers? also, could you respond to my other post? can you quantify the amount of news coverage those issues you brought up recieved?
"traditional america" isn't all it's cracked up to be. there needs to be a happy medium between those who want to change everything and those who want to change nothing.

Traditional America forged the greatest nation on this earth, hands down! The best part of it, we we're and still are kicking the snot out of commies/dictators at the same time we continue to build the the greatest nation on this planet!
No leftist, Marxist, Socilist, or Stalinist government has even come close, all failures just like the dry deconstuctionist repetitive liberal media.

Traditional America is a myth.
In fact, the concept of "Traditional America" changes from generation to generation. There was no Ward Cleaver, there is no 7th Heaven.
The media slants both ways, and anyone who believes either side tells the whole story is in for a dissapointment.
Let's take a look at how "liberal" the media is - most of the major news outlets are owned by larger corporations and conglomerates. Historically, Big Business lies in bed with the Conservatives - because Conservatives are the windfall.
These news anchors that we all call "liberal" are only as liberal as their networks allow them to be. If anything, we could say that these networks enjoy a decidedly RIGHT slant.
What we often dismiss as liberalism or ultra-conservatism in media is merely sensationalism packaged for capitalism. Reporting the negatives, the drama, the violence, the failures, and the scandals because that's what people want to watch.
And as long as we continue to watch the major networks, they will continue to spoon-feed us anything we tell them we'll swallow.
