So the media is actually getting better.GrundleStiltzkin said:

The lie is that the media hates the right

Hard to say. My dad calls himself an independent and he's as alt right as he gets. There are plenty of "independents" that are too extreme for the conventional parties. My guess would be that media independent = / = politically neutral.TierbsHsotBoobs said:

¿da fuq? you talking about? Saying a local CBS affiliate is a news channel is akin to saying KOMO Radio is a Husky football station.2001400ex said:
Do you think the news channels speak to their audience for regular programming. But not for their news segments?GrundleStiltzkin said:
More conflation. The sermon was media programming, zero to do with journalism. The survey was regarding journalists.2001400ex said:
The media speaks to their audience. Just like when I was in Charlotte last fall, the Sunday morning CBS channel before football was a Catholic sermon. You'd never see that in a liberal town.GrundleStiltzkin said:
Now you're conflating all sorts of shit.2001400ex said:
OK, local TV news. 80% or whatever of the square area of the country is Republican, right? Do you think local news people are Democrat in Nebraska? Same with local newspapers if you want to go there. How many were dug up that hadn't supported a Democrat in more than 40 plus years? One went back to the 1800s or some shit.dnc said:
Produce the numbers that show it's any different. I'd be surprised if TV is much different, it's sure as hell not for the TV I watch. Radio you probably have a point.2001400ex said:
Why do you hate TV and radio media? Does anyone read a newspaper anymore?GrundleStiltzkin said:

Just common sense says the media is probably pretty similar to the rest of the country. And I laff that 50.2% say they are independent. That's BS too, most people have a bias one way or the other. That's a product of people wanting the perception they are independent now days.
J-schools produce graduates who are flung out to the hinterlands to find jobs. These are not 5th generation farmers tied to hearth & home. Locality is not important.
Endorsements are made by an editorial board, a relatively small part of a total newsroom, and often including management/ownership.
Your common sense may say affiliation is similar to country at large. The survey says it does not match.
Yes and I'm saying that surveying journalists is dumb. There's so much more media out there were people get their news from.
Regular programming is what it is out of the can. News segments are reported upon by journalists. That's why surveying them is interesting and important. -
The Portland FOX affiliate shows Jack Van Impe (OKG by the way) before football2001400ex said:

As both parties became more successful in painting their opponents as insane dangerous retards more people became independent. It is embarrassing to be associated with a party these days as we see here. Everyone is independent.dnc said:
