CBS online: bias confirmed In honor of Hugh Hewitt's ongoing debate with CBS over its alleged bias in listing journo-bloggers, I decided to run the same test on CBS News as I did the MSM at large a few days ago. The results? I laughed. I cried. But it didn't change my opinion much.
Democrat: 81,200 Republican: 65,400 Percentage of articles that mention Democrats, versus percentage that mention Republicans: 55%
Liberal: 11,600 Conservative: 33,400 Percentage of times the subjective label "Conservative" is employed, rather than "Liberal": 74%
Left-wing: 359 Right-wing: 506 Percentage of times the subjective label "Right-wing" is employed, rather than "Left-wing": 58%
The phrase, "CBS - you just got pwnt" comes to mind.
And don't forget to check out the original survey, which appears in much prettier fashion and covers the general print media. Spoiler (shhh, don't tell anyone): the Mediacrats are demonstrably biased.
