The journalists worked for the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, Washington Post, Associated Press and a number of other newspapers

What they found surprised them. Even the supposedly hard-nosed financial reporters were overwhelmingly liberal. Of the 462 people surveyed, 17.63% called themselves "very liberal," while 40.84% described themselves as "somewhat liberal

What about the mythic "conservative" financial journalist? In fact, a mere 0.46% of financial journalists called themselves "very conservative," while just 3.94% said they were "somewhat conservative." That's a whopping 4.4% of the total that lean right-of-center.

That's a ratio of 13 "liberals" for every one "conservative." Whatever happened to ideological diversity?“

financial journalists. I'm not sure what Conservative finance is about. Probably Commies.

If Alex Jones got pulled over for speeding, should the police officer just execute him on the spot because he's 'a shitty person'?

Fuck him, right?

No. Justice is supposed to be blind. It shouldn't matter who the person is. If it was anyone other than Alex Jones who did what he did, there's no way on the fucking planet that they would get hit with a 1 Billion dollar fine.

That is a corrupt judicial system.

There is no room for "fuck him". You give everyone a fair shot.

The Left controls the majority of media. It's just the truth.

Controlling academia matters more, because then you indoctrinate your journalism and communications majors with your ideology and bully any naysayers into silence

It's uncollectable so your song and dance is just for fun, Liberace.

Even public opinion proves it. Which normally doesn't do much for proving anything else, but we're talking biases and ideological bubbles here, so it's easy to see.

Most Republican voters do not trust the media.

Most Democrat voters do trust the media.

Why? Because it either caters to their worldview or it doesn't.

The fact that most (all) Democrats hate Fox News is pretty much proof that Fox News is right wing.

Because Democrats wouldn't hate it if it wasn't.

It's just tribalism.

The Left controls the majority of media. It's just the truth.

Just like 80% of the lower enlisted in the US military tend to be Conservative. Guess what? The Left isn't too fond of the military either.

Republicans don't trust CNN, they most certainly trust the mainstream media as long as the talking heads are part of the right team.

True. And that's another area which Conservatives do not trust. And it's because it's controlled by Leftists.

But a lot of that is our own fault.

Conservatives need to embrace these historically Leftist sectors of society.

Some people are working to make media, create art, etc.

What is something that journalists, scientists, academics, and researchers have in common that they would disdain about far-right conservative Republicans?

Gee, I wonder if you could be interpretening that as bias?

Conservatives do not trust CNN. Correct.

It's the Leftwing Fox News.

Every thing is just mirrored when it comes to politics.
