Why do Conservatives whine incessantly about a "liberal bias" in the media when there is none?

FOX News has more viewers than its "liberal" rivals CNN and ABC combined.





Shows like Hannity and O'Reiley easily overtake "liberal" talk shows like Rachel Maddow.





Rush Limbaugh's radio station is the most listened to in the US.





What drugs do cons take to illusion themselves into thinking that there is a liberal bias in the media?|||..... Great question. A report just came out that said Obama only got positive press 9% of the time.



Study finds harsh media coverage for Obama

GOP Gets More Positive Press Than Obama, Pew Study Finds

http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/201鈥?/a>|||Number of viewers is not the media. Of all the stations on TV that I can get, I can only see Fox as Conservative leaning. The rest is liberal. That's why there is a liberal bias. Look at all the major newspaper in this country. Look at all the universities in this country. Can you not see the liberal bias in all those places?





But TV is the most influential news source around, and that's why Obama has an advantage in the last and next election.





There is a bias. Wise up.|||Keep telling yourself that.





THere are more radio shows than Rush Limbaugh and there are more channels than FNC.





Go watch history channel as well as comedy central, hbo and any other channel that isn't FNC and tell us that there isn't a liberal bias.





The reason that FNC does so well is because it is the only channel that doesn't preach liberal values.|||They know their ideas are in the minority but blame the media for that. It is their only rationalization that they can sell to explain the position they are in. They play the victim of bad press while spewing hate and misinformation. They are oblivious that most news channels give them a pass on many issues that easily could be hung around their necks like an albatross.|||There's always bias, liberal or conservative. Thinking news is purely factual with no bias is naive. It may be running a story at 5 pm vs running it at 3 am. Leading with a story vs burying it on page 23. Every media outlet has some sort of bias.|||The same reason why some Christians see Satan behind all contrary views, ideas and actions. It's a way to bolster one's cause when you see it as constantly under attack.





The whole world can't be against them because they're wrong-they must be mislead, they say. While I am not one to say that majority equals validity-when you're the only one who thinks the sky is red, you just might be wrong.|||"Go watch history channel as well as comedy central, hbo and any other channel that isn't FNC and tell us that there isn't a liberal bias."





There's your answer. Not to whether or not there is a liberal bias, but to why there is a perceived one.|||Because 90% of journalism majors consistently describe themselves as "liberal", "progressive", etc.|||Because Fox news and Rush Limbaugh tell them that all the other media is biased towards liberals and is lying to them. Their fans avoid all other media so they don't have to listen to "lies". It's really good marketing by Fox.|||Your "evidence" of no liberal bias in the media doesn't show a lack of liberal bias. It shows that media with a liberal bias gets lousy ratings compared to conservative and neutral media.|||LOL. Oh wait, you seriously can't see the liberal bias. How sad. Maybe if you took the Kool-aid glasses off you could see better.|||Just because FOX is the most watched and highest rated (as you say) doesn't mean there isn't bias at the other networks.|||Propaganda. That is all.|||All I see is a pro-big government bias on every media network on TV.|||All I see is a factual bias.|||wow disher5 your source said that the obama administration has been a failure. I would agree.



Can't believe abc cbs and nbc are admitting this since they pushed Obama so much leading up to his election.|||Oh no, there is. It's just exaggerated.|||You need a brain that functions to see it
