Pick the Worst Liberal Media Bias of 2012!
Media Research Center ^

Posted on 12/12/2012 9:53:16 AM PST by Lucky9teen

Every year a panel of leading expert conservative media observers pick the most-biased media quotes for the Media Research Center's annual awards for the year's "worst reporting." And these judges have done so again this year to decide the 2012 award "winners," with the choices to be announced on Monday, December 17, but...

In the meantime, you can have some fun making your own choices now in this unofficial "public ballot" tabulation.

For each of the ten categories, pick one quote – the one you think is the most outrageous in the category.

Then move on through all of the categories. If the buttons are grayed out, that's because you've already cast your votes, but you can still read the quotes and play the videos.

This public Web balloting opened on Monday, December 10 at 10 AM EST and will close at 6 PM EST on Thursday, December 13.

The "public ballot' winners and results will be posted on Friday morning, December 14. Then, on Monday December 17, we'll post the official results as selected by the judges and you can compare their picks to yours.

I don't care about opinion journalists. Complaining about them is like the left complaining about Rush Limbaugh.

We need to focus on newsroom & editorial bias. That is where the decisions are made what to report or not report.

And THAT is where our problem lies.

Communist Goal #20: Infiltrate the press. Get control of book-review assignments, editorial writing, policy-making positions.

The trashing of George Zimmerman has to be right up there.

The worst was in the second Presidential debate, Candy Crowley coming to Obama’s cry for help and allowing him to lie while attacking Romney. Later she distanced herself.

Obama’s faux moral outrage was unbelievable.

It was evil and Romney lost the election there IMO.

Thing is, 99% of the time, when a liberal is on, the label on the screen is “Commmentator,” or “Columnist.” When a conservative is on, the label says, “Conservative Commentator,” or “Conservative Columnist.”

All the reporting on congresswoman Gifford being shot by some nut case and in the same shooting a republican judge was killed...he wasn’t worth any words of sorrow for his family....she is at least still alive.
