Press Puts Money Where Mouth Is

Who would have guessed?  The press backs the candidates and political party financially that they back in their "news" coverage.

 

Media Donations Favor Dems 100-1

The New York Times' refusal to publish John McCain's rebuttal to Barack Obama's Iraq op-ed may be the most glaring example of liberal media bias this journalist has ever seen. But true proof of widespread media bias requires one to follow an old journalism maxim: Follow the money.

...The contributions of individuals who reported being employed by major media organizations are...$315,533 to Democrats, $3,150 to Republicans — a ratio of 100-to-1. No bias there.

The press only backs the Democrats because Stalin isn't on the ballot.
