manipulates damn near every story nowadays ... their pro-wealthy/pro-corporate bias has gotten so fucking pathetically obvious ... aside from occasional pieces in WaPo/NYT and a handful of other outlets where we can sometimes get an accurately-described piece.

This piece OTOH is SO OBVIOUSLY pro-Osteen/anti-Liberal (most importantly 'anti-liberal media') it's ridiculous. If you can't see how it practically SCREAMS RW bias, then you apparently haven't figured out how public opinion is being manipulated.
