Unfortunately, you're only opining, and falling for the oldest data error in the media book, in that you think they're biased against your side. Equl numbers of moderates and left-leaning people think that the media are biased to the Right, from their coporate advertising masters. You'll have therefore to bring some data to the table to persuade anyone here.

Guess you missed that?

I'm definitely opining, and I'm not a conservative. I'm a moderate liberal. I'm also skeptical of your claim about liberal and moderate perceptions of the media. I'm of the impression that claims of liberal bias in the media isn't controversial even among the far left.
