UCLA study concludes left wing bias in media is legit
Found this on Drudge
http://www.newsroom.ucla.edu/page.asp?RelNum=6664 A study by some people in the UCLA political science department concluded that most major media outlets have a left wing bias. 18 of 20 major outlets studied were found to lean left, 2 leaning right. Read/Discuss |

Re: UCLA study concludes left wing bias in media is legit
UA,
It would be nice to have an intelligent discussion on this topic. However in this forum, good luck. I posted the results from Princeton's Review of Ethics in Journalism here a while back. The conservastives who disagreed with it simply said that Columbia University is biased. The libs said it should be trusted. I imagine you will get the opposite response. |

The study you reference had been discussed in at least 3 different threads before you made a post about it. I believe Chris Alger was the first to make a post about it and it preceeded yours by months.

I did read the first paragraph, that is a terrible way to figure out which is which. It said the drudge report is left of center!
Here is all you need to know about the most liberal news source in america: http://mediamatters.org/issues_topic...lstreetjournal |

Who decides what is center?
The NAACP is not a left wing organization. That is like saying everyone to the left of David Duke is a liberal. |

It could be good thread. First, though, I propose this be a sucker free thread - no posting of claims without non-wiki sources to support.

Most major news outlets have a bias towards missing the point and providing low content. Which side they fall on isn't as important.

The media is not liberal or conservative, it is corporate. They are all owned by huge conglomerates. GE, a major defense contractor owns NBC.
How exactly did they define conservative and liberal anyway? OMGWTFLOLBBQ!!! The study says the Wall Street Journal is the MOST liberal media outlet. Good bye credibility! The method is obviously flawed. |
