The random political thoughts thread (Part Deux)

[Motorboat Cruiser]

This sums thing up quite nicely:

In other words, the study rests on a presumption that can only be described as bizarre: If a member of Congress cites a think tank approvingly, and if that think tank is also cited by a news organization, then the news organization has a "bias" making it an ideological mirror of the member of Congress who cited the think tank. This, as Groseclose and Milyo define it, is what constitutes "media bias."

Scaeagles, does FauxNews claim to be "fair and balanced" bother you? Even the study you cite indicates they lean to the right, which is hardly balanced, unless you're drunk or something.
