I believe the NYT to be right-leaning, and the LAT to be left-leaning. Time Magazine to be right-leaning, Newsweek to be left-leaning. But then again, we probably see "what we want to see".
To put it another way, sometimes people accuse them mods of being "biased" or "leaning one way or the other". So, if we think there may be a bias, we will look for "signs" to justify our suspicions.
The truth, IMO, is probably somewhere in the middle. Some say the media is left-biased, some say the media is right biased. It is a black-hole argument - we can't escape it! LOL! Seriously though, whether or not the media is biased one way or another is an irreconciliable debate (for the moment).
Concerning this thread, ther are plenty of media articles illustrating both the positive and the negative sides.
Cheers!
