Check out this load of teabagger fertilizer printed in the TH this morning. It'll make the grass grow nice and green too.
Recently, Gallup provided the answer in its annual poll showing more Americans (still) self-identify conservative (38 percent) than liberal (24 percent). But, judging by recent elections and TV punditry, one gets the impression that liberals are dominant in the U.S. Could it be that whoever controls the message also shapes public opinion?
An overwhelming majority of journalists self-identify as liberal, only 7 percent self-identify as conservative. Liberal bias in the media has been called out by a handful of journalists recently such as Sharyl Attkisson (formerly CBS), Mark Halperin and Joe Scarborough (MSNBC), and Bernard Goldberg in his book, "A Slobbering Love Affair."
Why is it that liberal politicians are seldom held to account, but conservative politicians are subjected to a virtual inquisition? Candidate Obama was not scrutinized until conservatives like Dinesh D'Souza (immigrant from India) researched his background and published his findings in his book, "The Roots Of Obama's Rage." What was Dinesh's reception in America? The IRS investigated his contributions to conservative candidates (and was found guilty of exceeding the legal limits of personal donations).
What do we know about Obama's college career? Did any mainstream journalist investigate the friends and family of Obama in the U.S. and Kenya? By contrast, what do we know about Sarah Palin? About John McCain? About Mitt Romney?
