interesting read, thx for the post. i've always conceded that fox news was right-leaning, but it's interesting that they're closer to the study's political center than many other major news sources.
i'm curious to know how they determined which side of an issue was the conservative or liberal one, some don't have easy answers. for instance, legalizing marijuana might be a move towards more liberal law... but its most vocal advocates (some libertarians) do so from a conservative view of government's dominion.
