Lately I’m sure you have been hearing
a lot about the presidential debates and GOP candidates. The media has been
ruthlessly attacking them, calling their bluffs and not letting them get away
with lies or slander. I have to admit, it is refreshing to see the media have
more of a skeptical attitude towards the candidates. We tend to glorify the
leader (or potential leaders) of our country. They seem to be able to get away
with more, a prime example being that Richard Nixon was never charged and
eventually pardoned for his actions. Any normal, average citizen engaged in
such activities would probably have never
seen outside the inside of a jail cell.
Here , we discuss a variety of taboo topics openly. We provide knowledge, resources, and insight into various topics.

Liberal Bias
Now, this isn’t to say that the media isn’t
at all biast. That is not true in the least. If anything, most news sources
take somewhat of a liberal bias. Right? Acually, no. According to Journal of Broadcasting &
Electronic Media. “Despite
research to the contrary, the general public and a significant number of
politicians are convinced the U.S. news media have a liberal and pro-Democratic
bias. Findings based on two large national
surveys suggest that audiences' ideologies and partisanships affect how they
view the media.”
