There is no liberal on Hannity and Colms. There is an extreme right, and there is a slight right. By comnparison, one may appear left, but he is not an accurate representation of the average person on the left.

This is about the UCLA report on media bias. Roach was, with good reason, pointing out that this report is clearly suspect, and that it's obviously written by those who are right leaning. It's a shame that suddenly this isn't about the UCLA report, but about the left exaggerating about Eichmen. Would you like to talk about how Clinton got a bj, too?

As stated in numerous posts above, we all know there is media bias. This study is hardly a revelation. Because we already are familiar with the phenomena, we know it when we see it. Roachboy is correct for pointing out the fact that this is almost certianally a work of people who are obviously on the right and wish to distort reality.

Fox News being shown as close to center is PROOF that this study is incorrect. That is all the evidence I need.
