Study: CBS's Couric, NBC's Todd Almost as Liberal as DKos; WaPo Left of Firedoglake

Twitter and other social networks have provided social scientists with unprecedented means of measuring human interaction. As it turns out, that fact has implications for the media bias debate.

In a study to be released next month, three Duke University researchers rank politicians and other public figures by political ideology as measured by a formula that incorporates whom they follow on Twitter, and who follows them. "The results dovetailed with ideological ranking systems based on the politicians’ voting records," the New York Times reported on Monday.

If the study is accurate, it demonstrates just how liberal some of America's most prominent journalists really are. Check below the break for some key findings concerning on the not-so-neutral news media.

And I'm wondering how Chuck Todd's tweets are liberal when 99.9999% of his tweets are sports related. :confused:

No. If I had no interest in what the study said, I wouldn't have clicked the link and then inserted my foot in my mouth. :rolleyes:

The second I clicked the Duke study (because I look past the NB bull#### and go right to the source), I saw it listed Toby Keith and PGA Tour twitter accounts as media sources... I literally rolled. :roflmao::roflmao:

Of course you wouldn't've. Still Batting-1000! :yay: Well played.



BTW: I never said you had no interest in what the study said.

Literally?

Like you were actually down on the floor rolling around because you lost control of your bodily functions?


Or literally, like, you don't use the word "literally" literally, literally?




It might help if you take the story for what it is, and stop being such a tight-ass all the time.

Yes, I laughed so hard (at the ridiculous assertion that Toby Keith and the PGA Tour are political media outlets) that I lost bodily function and rolled around the floor in laughter. :roflmao:

So instead, you skipped clicking the link, and went directly to sticking your foot in your mouth.

Good job, dude.
