OK, I won't bother arguing with the premise, that the media has a liberal bias - ignoring the fact that Fox is the largest media company in the world - so let's assume you're right, that most of the media has a liberal bias. That would then imply that the majority of reporters, anchors, writers and editors are liberals. Why do YOU think that is? Is there some vast conspiracy afoot? Are liberal politicians using their unlimited power to force media companies to hire only liberals? Is there a secret society of media corporate managers that is hell-bent on stifling conservative thought?
I mean, the whole premise just never quite made sense to me. How can an entire industry be biased one way or the other, unless there is a financial incentive? So for me it comes down to two theories: The first is the Shoot the Messenger Theory - that the media just tells the truth and conservatives don't like the truth. The other is the Follow the Money Theory - the media gives the liberal side because that is what the people want to hear and thus pay for.
Which theory do you think is correct?
If Fox news and Limbaugh have the highest ratings, doesn't that make them the mainstream media?
The funny thing is if they can control of the government they will be the "bad guys". However, I doubt they're introspective enough to grok the consequences of that.
LOL. Khan got his air time ONLY because Trump opened his mouth and created the controversy, which he didn't have to do. If Trump had left him alone, Khan would be forgotten already.
Trump is a self-destructor.
" Khan got his air time ONLY because Trump opened his mouth"
Millions of people would like air time at the Dem National Convention.
Why was KHan picked?
What did he have to say that was WORTH him being picked over the other millions? His son being killed there.
I find odd that he spoke out against the Iraq war and his sons death when Hillary voted FOR it.
He spoke NOT ONE SINGLE WORD against her vote.
Of course we know of the ties he has in his personal and career life.
Then what is the real cause? I addressed my post to you, the OP, in all seriousness. What do you think has caused an entire industry to be dominated by liberals?
