Big Media - Lack of Diversity - Mindless Repetition of GOP Talking Points
Here is just a sampling of Big Media's complete failure to offer any critical analysis of the charges of the McCain camp regarding media bias, Of course, many newspapers simply reprint the AP's articles, and the AP article is linked in MSNBC's website. The one thing missing from all this discussion. Any examination whether McCain benefits from bias. For example, while Obama "flip flops," McCain "evolves." You would think with the million dollar budgets of these networks that there would be some journalism beyond merely cutting and pasting the latest GOP talking point:
