RE: [MLUG - DISCUSSION] what majority wants Bush?

["Spurling, Shannon" <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

What I find really interesting is that he sets up his premise and goes
on to prove it...
"> In other words, people watching the news see it as unbiased if it is 
> showing the world to them in the way they see it - if it matches their

> belief system.  If the news departs from the viewers perspective, they

> will see the news as slanted."

And then he states:

" The way I see it, we have ordinary news, 
> and we have extreme right wing, intentionally biased, politically- 
> motivated, often-deceitful crap (as on Fox News - Hannity, O'Reilly, 
> Coulter, etc.).  Where is the biased liberal news?  There is none!"

Well, could it be that he is the victim of his own hypothesis?

Come on, Mike! You're very confused. Do you really believe that there 
can be extreme right wing crap without extreme left wing crap? It 
doesn't work that way. You don't even notice it because it matches your 
belief system.

Sigh.
