Actually, Harvard empirically proved it. Fucker.
"a
joint survey by the Project for Excellence in Journalism and Harvard's
Joan Shorenstein Center on the Press, Politics and Public Policy —
hardly a bastion of conservative orthodoxy — found that in covering the
current presidential race, the media are sympathetic to Democrats and
hostile to Republicans.
Democrats are not only favored in the
tone of the coverage. They get more coverage period. This is
particularly evident on morning news shows, which "produced almost twice
as many stories (51% to 27%) focused on Democratic candidates than on
Republicans."
The most flagrant bias, however, was found in
newspapers. In reviewing front-page coverage in 11 newspapers, the study
found the tone positive in nearly six times as many stories about
Democrats as it was negative." |
