Too Funny

[Ken King]

ST,

Explain how a single report, by an obvious liberal (after all he went to the same school as Demsformd), concerning only one show on Fox makes that entire network imbalanced? Is that what you cite as proof?

Right on Ken! I would also point out the timing of the study referenced in the article. This was right at the time that the Republicans were coming into office and there was all manner of claims and counter-claims being made. It's no wonder that there were a lot of Republicans on the show at that time. I bet a similar study done at the time of Clinton's impeachment would show a similar slant to the Democrats as I remember seeing Dems all over the news shows defending Clinton.

I would like to see a similar study for the past six months or so and see how that would pan out, given that Brit Hume's show has offered the widest range of opinions on Iraq of just about any news program.

A little older, but interesting.

Ooh BABY! Look who's been caught not doing his homework!

Here's where they break down the cons vs. the libs. Note the list of names they consider "Bipartisan/Nonpartisan/Third-party":

Bill Maher
David Gergen
Lou Dobbs
Peter Arnett
Ralph Nader
Sarah Brady

I'd also like you to actually read the lists, rather than just scan and be appalled that the Republican list is so much longer than the Democrat one. Notice how many times names are duplicated on the Republican end? There are dupes on the Dem end too, but under the Britt Hume section, each Dem is listed once. Yet Bill Kristol has 5 entries just by himself.

Sorry, ST, that dog won't hunt.
