After viewing an article on examiner.com that asks the question about the current existance of the “liberal media bias”…. I thought I would share a few thoughts on this.
Not long ago (10 or 15 years ago) the big buzz on talk radio was how unfair and completely bias the media was - to the left. In fact it’s only in recent years that this proclamation has died down. But I would say the notion of only 1 side being represented on a given subject - has changed dramatically… and is worth noting.
The way news is being covered these days has changed dramatically and I think reporters of all view points are now being represented quite well. This has been a long time coming. This may come as a bit of a shock to those from a conservative viewpoint, as we’ve thought of ourselves for so long as the “unheard” voice in the wilderness.
So I say let’s keep score...

When in doubt, blame Medved.
I went to the link, and it appears the answer is “staff”. It looks like a very simple blog, but no names seem to exist anywhere about who is involved.
Overall, whoever it is did a fairly poor job of explaining his/her basis that liberal bias is ending....
What utter nonsense! We have a Democrat president and Democratic controlled Congress! Of course the Democrats have to be reported on. They control everything now! But does the press bust Obama's chops for lying about how he "inherited this mess" when in fact he's been in Congress since Jan 2005 and passing those bills!

It really hurts to watch that!
O dear gawd, that must have HURT.
....all view points are now not being represented quite well.
There, fixed it for you, troll.
" you lie"
There have been a lot of studies on media bias, one of the most detailed came from George Mason University which measured the time spent on each side of an issue as well as the number of guests representing each side. That study showed that, in balance with the country, all the media is leftward slanting, even Fox, although Fox and Drudge where closest to the middle, being the most balanced.
Here is the detailed study.

You joined three days ago to post an article written by your website that is laughable anyway?
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
no.
NO....it’s still here.
I guess bias must be a difficult thing to gauge when a good number of people still get their news from local and "popular" cable outlets, and when said news organizations pick and choose which stories to run and which stories to ignore based on personal politics and preference. So if a violent protest takes place in Europe during Obama's visit to the G20 summit and you don't see it covered on CNN, did it really happen? If Michelle Obama wears a mangled mess of clothing to a public event and the statists drool and fawn, does it make her fashionable?
This country was duped into voting for a rank amateur with the assistance of statists in the media - but as the days go by, more people are beginning to wake up and smell the gulag.
Liberal bias dead? Ohhh, no no no. The liberal bias is just beginning.
