CLEAR evidence of media bias?

Question

Main stream media would not report on John Edwards affair, because it was unsubstantiated, and because it was reported by the National Enquirer.

Low and behold, on ABC news.com, yesterday they had NO PROBLEM reporting an alleged affair between Palin and a business partner of her husbands reported by, you guessed it, the National Enquirer.

If that is not clear evidence of media bias, and you out there with a straight face can tell me it's not, then you my friend, are delusional.

Answer 1

Media bias indeed.  Not long ago, they subtly shed some light on Michelle Obamas temper issues and grudges on white americans, then after her award winning act at the DNC, they praised her.  How foolish do they think we are?  First she bashed Hillary for being in the picture, now that she's out, she acts like a total hypocrite.  Now they focus on Sarah Palin.  After McCains victory, they'll go with their tails between their legs and back with more hypocrisy.  

Answer 2

Palin has been nominated by the Republican Party to be Vice President.  If Palin was just one of a group of people trying for the nomination, it would not be news. That's why it wasn't news with Edwards.  

Answer 3

Can I get an AMEN?!?!?!

Great point

Answer 4

Nice.  And the hits just keep on coming!  

Wake up America! Impeach the PRESS!

Answer 5

I don't think it's necessarily PROOF of bias...I think it's proof that Edwards is old news.  No one cares abt Edwards anymore.  If Obama cheats...then we'll have ourselves a debate.

btw - keep making digs at the press...they are the eyes and ears of this campaign...it is a dangerous game you Republicans are playing.....if there truly is a liberal bias, then you will be putty in the hands of Democrats.  While they are indeed supposed to be unbiased...they still have the power to state opinions...opinions that are broadcasted for all to see.  

It's frankly in bad taste to continuously tell the media that they can't do their jobs...and I won't be surprised if they hold a grudge!!

Answer 6

Wow, Palin and her family are the gift that just keeps giving! Did McCain really vett Palin, or was it truly a rush to judgment.  

Answer 7

If you look up the definition of a HYPOCRITE in the dictionary you will find a picture of a Democrat next to it!
