27. And conservatives have the audacity to claim this shill has a liberal bias!

There are a lot of blatantly conservative commentators and journalists in the MSM. David Gregory is definitely one of the more obvious. Between his guest list and his line of "questioning," it's like he's not even trying to hide it.

You gotta hand it to the conservatives though, they're smart. They've taken over most of the media in this country, yet they've somehow managed to perpetuate the belief that the media is biased against them and many people just accept that belief with no evidence being provided to them.
