Politically speaking, do you believe the media is liberal?

Not a bit.\nThe media is owned almost entirely by large corporations, which are very conservative/republican.  If they were any bit liberal, the presidents approval rating would be much lower than 29%.\n\nFox - owned by Rupert Murdock / Newscorp\nNBC - owned by General Electric\nABC - owned by Disney\nCBS - owned by Viacom\nCNN - owned by Time-Warner

The problem with a lot of people in this country is that they have been so used to hearing only the liberal side of the news that when someone reports on the conservative side, they think that they are just some "right-wing whack job", instead of someone who is just giving the other side. Admittedly, there are some people on Fox News who only toe the Republican Party line, but the news reporters are doing what every other reporter on every other station should be doing: giving the news as it happens, without putting their spin or their opinion with it.

OMG NO!!!! Mainstream media, be they normally associated as left or right, are a bunch of non informed idiots. \n\nLiars! They are ALL liars! :) They spin it just like the next politician. \n\nPeople please, do not rely on one news source. There are three sides to every story; you side, my side and the truth. \n\nthe moral is, read as much as you can about any given situation from different sources, and draw your own conclusion.\n\n**Believe 1% of what your mother tells you and nothing anyone else tells you.

The media according to a major survey group out of Washington and found that the major papers and TV news channels post 77 positive stories for Democrats to every 15 for Republicans. That sounds a little biased to me?

i have found yahoo to be prety unbiased and fair in its news coverage.  maybe you see stories that you perceive to be anti-bush because bush has actually been doing these things.  with any sitting president i think the news is typically more negative than positive, because negative news sells.  Positive news is often just seen as the president doing his job.  And all of the news is not anti-bush.  I like how when the media reports on something bad the president did, all the right-wing fanatics scream about media bias.  Do you actually deny that the president screwed up when it gets reported, or do you just think it should not be reported?  Accusations that ONLY negative news is reported are blatantly false.\n\np.s. i like how conservatives always accuse liberals of inviting the gov. into our private lives when it is actually conservative governments that pose the biggest threats to individual privacy and freedom.  it is conservative politicians who want the government in the bedroom, who have expanded the powers of the federal government, who have restricted civil liberties.

Political views are based off of one's morals and values - THAT cannot be helped. Where a lot of people go wrong, though, is in seeking media outlets that support their point of view rather than challenge it.\n\nTo be truly informed, one must look at the so-called liberal media and the so-called conservative media - with a gain of salt. One should do as much research as possible and then decide if the evidence shape his views or if he lets his views shape the evidence.

All of the mainstream media are liberal. Most are from the Woodward and Bernstein era. In their foggy minds they are all just about to expose the next Watergate.\n Most of these people are mentally disabled from dropping acid at Woodstock. In their deluded minds they're all just trying to stick it to the man or blame it on the system dude. In the back of their closets they still have their tie dyed Che Guevara T's and a dog eared copy of Chairman Mao's little red book.\nIn truth they hate America and everything it stands for. In a liberals upside-down mind anything that is normal or traditional is wrong and anything is freaky, kinky, or subversive is correct.\n\nSo what is the truth anyway. \nWell the way I see it is this.\nThe Republicans are right about half the time.\nBut the Democrats are always Wrong.

Drive-by media.\n\nThe only opinions most of them will accept are the left wingers.  \n\nDon't believe me?  See for yourself.  (P)MSNBC, New York Times, Chicago Sun, Washington Post,  LA times.  Write them a letter from a conservative viewpoint and it will never be printed.  Write them a letter from the other side and it's on the front page. \n\nSpin to win.\n\nIf you want the real news, watch FOX.

One would have to be a hardcore communist to think that those news media organizations you listed above have a conservative bent.\n\nThey are very much liberal.

There are three side to every story, my side, your side, and the truth.  A wise man once said to only believe half of what you see, and none of what you hear.  In the U.S. you have a very Liberal Press, but there is also enough conservative press out there that you can get a story from different perspectives.  Sometimes the world made by the press can be too real, but most of the time it is just bland.  We need to get news from several different sources in order to get a feel for what the story actually is.  The main problem with the media is that they only report what they want and that leaves a lot out there that we never get to learn about.

can't argue with having one less liberal in the media
