When I'm talking to people from outside Washington, one question inevitably comes up: Why is the media so liberal? The question often reflects a suspicion that members of the press get together and decide on a story line that favors liberals and Democrats and denigrates conservatives and Republicans.
My response has usually been to say, yes, there's liberal bias in the media, but there's no conspiracy. The liberal tilt is an accident of nature. The media disproportionately attracts people from a liberal arts background who tend, quite innocently, to be politically liberal. If they came from West Point or engineering school, this wouldn't be the case.
Now, after learning I'd been targeted for a smear attack by a member of an online clique of liberal journalists, I'm inclined to amend my response. Not to say there's a media conspiracy, but at least to note that hundreds of journalists have gotten together, on an online listserv called JournoList, to promote liberalism and liberal politicians at the expense of traditional journalism.
My guess is that this and other revelations about JournoList will deepen the distrust of the national press. True, participants in the online clubhouse appear to hail chiefly from the media's self-identified left wing. But its founder, Ezra Klein, is a prominent writer for the Washington Post. Mr. Klein shut down JournoList last month—a wise decision.

ROFLMAO! If Fred is just now figuring this out, he’s dumber than I thought. And he’s damn sure too dumb to be one of our “conservative spokesmen.”
The proper response should be: "It is biased; do not ever purchase their product or support them in any way financially. Boycott the MSM. It is your patriotic duty."

“Mr. Klein shut down JournoList last month”
Does anyone really believe it is shut down - or just moved to another list somewhere?
Sorry, but I can’t believe Barnes either.
There has been a lot of collusion by people like Barnes, even if they don’t use a “journolist” email exchange. They do it through other means, like telephone calls, Green Room exchanges, etc.
The best example of this is the support that Barmes,Will, Rove, Kondracke use when it comes to amnesty and open borders. They are all of like mind on this issue, even when 80% of the people don’t want it. They sit around and commiserate about how ignorant the “yahoos” are on immigration and how they can educate the “masses” on the issue.
Fred remains a dope. He just thinks they’re disbanded.
Cripes. And the beat goes on.
“Does anyone really believe it is shut down - or just moved to another list somewhere?”
It is not shutdown. It got renamed, just like ACORN.
Too damn squishy, the whole damn lot of them. Conservatives? Pfft. They’ve long forgotten the Constitution, except the part that applies to them.
Indisputable evidence that that the Vast Left Wing Media Conspiracy is in collusion to “shape” what people believe in America.
Tarring and feathering would be far too kind.
HA! CNN American Morning interviewing Shirley Sherrod. Questions from anchors are would you like to sue Andrew Breitbart? Wouldn’t you like to shut his website down? We need you inside the WH.. Her answers are all yes and she adds she supports Obama, he is my president she says, and she adds he has not really been through what a lot of blacks have and does not understand, she says she would like to talk to him, to help him.... Barack the Magic Negro..
Over 89% of them are self proclaiming atheists, and of the other 11%, I expect ten percent of those won't admit it.
These are people that actually believe they are of a superior intellect, in a weird, twisted, Nazi "Übermensch" eugenics way.
Google the words: liberal and atheist http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=off&rlz=1W1ACGW_en&q=liberal+and+atheist&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai=
You will find (on the first two pages) several articles where liberals declare themselves superior.
Atheists And Liberals More Intelligent, Says Atheist, Liberal Psychologist
These are wicked, narcissistic people who have rejected God.
They never read Romans 1: 20-25
For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
And opened up a new site called.........??????
It's because they are liberals FIRST and jews second.
Rush's "Talking Point" montages more than prove conspiracy.
Barnes is one of so many pundits who want so much to "belong" to the club, they have compromised all notions of principle.
It's funny how when the pure communists take power, they turn on anyone who isn't pure communist.
Amen!

Meet "the Cabalist" - leaner, hungrier, tighter (it was a leak that got them caught last time), angrier, more corrupt.
