As someone who lives in a recent Olympic city (SLC) I can tell you that there are a lot of benefits for having the Olympics. We had a ton of infrastructure upgrades to roads and they even added a light rail. I think cities that host the Olympic's need to make a big investment upfront but that investment pays off dividends in the long run.

If I understand everything in preceding posts it is like this:
EXTREME RIGHT
Fox News
DEAD CENTER
NBC
ABC
CBS
MSNBC
CNN/HLN
DAILY KOS
ET AL

EXTREME LEFT
NOT APPLICABLE


I would have to conclude there is definately bias here. There is also an unfair power so-called conservatives seem wield over all others.
I'm not sure how that works. Maybe I can bottle it. (I'm looking for something to do as pick-up work so I can have a modicum of pocket money for retirement)

I would actually say

Extreme right: Fox news

Center ABC NBC CBS CNN

Left: MSNBC

Extreme Left: Daily KOS

The problem is fox news yells the loudest and is trying to say it is the center and everything else is extreme left. Which we all know is bullshit.

Daily KOS is hardly the extreme left. I wouldn't even call Fox News the extreme right. .

I think Fox News is well into the right, and that Daily KOS is essentially liberally progressive. Correct me if I'm wrong, I don't regularly read/watch either, but this is what I surmise from my general understanding of what I have seen or read.

I don't tend to view Daily KOS as a source of workers-unite type stuff.

The voices on the far left in the U.S. virtually fall on deaf ears.

Did you know the bible is liberally biased?

Conservative Bible Project - Conservapedia

Oh wow.

There is currently a commission of "educators" in Texas to make recommendations on social studies curriculum. Several commission members (an evangelical minister and the former vice chairman of the Texas Republican Party) evidently want to remove Cesar Chavez and Thurgood Marshall from the curriculum.

Conservatives say Texas social studies classes give too much credit to civil rights leaders

But this recommendation really cracked me up:

Barton, a former vice chairman of the Texas Republican Party, said that because the U.S. is a republic rather than a democracy, the proper adjective for identifying U.S. values and processes should be "republican" rather than "democratic." That means social studies books should discuss "republican" values in the U.S., his report said.

Ah....that conservative concern for our kids education is touching!

Don't like history or the Bible? Rewrite it! Yeah!

Gotta admire their efforts... never let the facts get in the way of what you think.
