September 19, 2004--Television news networks would like to see themselves as a team of impartial journalists working on behalf of their audience. However, a Rasmussen Reports survey found that voters see an entirely different picture. Generally speaking, they believe ABC News, CBS News, NBC News, CNN, and the Fox News Channel present a biased picture to help one campaign or the other.

Between 33% and 39% of Americans believe that each of the five major broadcast news outlets is unbiased. On balance, four of the five are believed to be helping the Kerry campaign. One, Fox News, is believed to be helping the Bush campaign.

CBS is seen as the most biased--37% believe that network news team is trying to help the Kerry campaign. Only 33% believe it presents the news in an unbiased manner. This may be a reaction to the recent flap over memos aired by CBS--38% believe that Dan Rather used his broadcasts to help the Kerry campaign.

7. Guys, you aren't understanding 'liberal media bias'

If they aren't outright preaching to viewers that homosexuality is a sin, that abortion is a stain against human decency, and that God should be mentioned every 5 minutes in both schools and in government, then its fucking liberal media bias.

8. I DON'T BELIEVE ANY POLLS.

9. Credit the Repukes

They have turned myth into reality. Perception is all and they kick our ass at the ability to alter perception by repeating the same shit over and over and over and over ...
