[quote][url=http://motherboard.vice.com/blog/how-the-nsa-exposed-the-medias-biggest-bias?]Let's just state up front that it is certainly true that Democratic and Republican party biases exist in the corners of the mediascape that are [i]explicitly partisan[/i]—places like talk radio and party-aligned cable television, to name a couple... ...However, the dirty little secret is that despite all the hype, audience data prove that these purely partisan outlets represent a comparatively tiny share of the media world—the share that caters to the small handful of already-persuaded political junkies. More importantly, as the recent brouhaha over the National Security Administration highlights, these outlets' blatantly partisan biases do not reflect a far more pervasive and problematic bias in the much larger and more influential general-audience news media: the bias toward governments, corporations, politicians and businesspeople from any political party who appear to wield disproportionate [i]power.[/i][/url][/quote] The NSA scandal has once again shown that the more disturbing bias in the media is towards the powerful, not the parties. Thoughts?
