how is that head in sand treating you? random thoughts Send a noteboard - 16/03/2010 02:19:54 PM
Seriously. If the left really is controlling the media with interests in controlling information, they suck at it.


ineffective is an overriding trait for the left but I think the fact that the majority in the media are liberal is pretty well established. I guess thinking Hollywood has a liberal slant is paranoia as well?

News Flash: People on the left are angered by what they see in the media nearly as much (if not more so) than you are. This means that whoever does control the media (hint: it is green and features former Presidents) doesn't serve liberal interests.


The far left complaining the left leaning media does not lean left enough is not a valid argument. Fringe groups are always angry that the media does not present the “truth” that they see. What I am talking about is the fact that a group that makes up about 20% of the population (liberals) makes up about 80-90% of the media.

I understand that it does not serve your interests, either. But you can't divide the world into people who agree with you and liberals. Sorry, the world is more complex than that.


Blah blah blah. Please stop with the caned meaningless arguments. You’re a liberal not because you disagree with me but because you are a liberal. If you are going top use such silly little attacks please try and at least defend them with facts even if it doesn’t serve your interest. I could just as easily use the argument that consider everyone who disagrees with a wing nut.
