How come it is that every democratic candidate slip is broadcast
far and wide but when information about Rudy or Mitt or McCain muffing something doesn't seem to get any coverage outside of DU and other liberal sites...

I know it's probably due to my rising sense of partisanship, but damn, when was the last time a gaff by one of the leading Republicans made all the talk shows, and all the papers...

Just wonderin'...

2. Flame suit on.
There is a bonafide psychological tendency in people to think that the media is biased to the other side of the political spectrum - it is a form of selective memory. Or it might be that the media actually is biased, and I think there's plenty of good evidence to support that notion. Just sayin'.

4. This is most likely due to the fact that the MSM
is owned by the republicans...

Or controlled by them.....
