Media not liberal? Come on

Joe Walsh is a polarizing individual when it comes to politics. Whether the Daily Herald is anti-Walsh is really not a problem since newspapers are generally either liberal or conservative in their approach. I would agree that the two pictures shown of Rep. Walsh are not negative but actually show him in a favorable light.

My issue with Mr. Slusher is in paragraph four when he cites the term “liberal media” as being an exhaustive cliché. Really Mr. Slusher, are you asking us to believe that the media, all forms, does not come down on the liberal side of nearly all issues?

Also, you refer to a “top all-news” cable television outlet, I am guessing Fox. Have you ever watched MSNBC? This channel led by one of the biggest blow hards on television, Chris Matthews, outdoes Fox in pushing an agenda by a factor of at least ten.

To accuse the Fox Network the way you have done is proof enough that the media, including the Daily Herald, is indeed preaching the liberal line and while I don’t pay any attention to your recommendations for elected office where do you stand in your picks for November?

My guess is the liberal slate will fare much better than the conservative candidates. Not necessarily based on the facts or their abilities.
