Is there a left tilt to the medias coverage of the news? If there is, can it be proven? And if it can be proven, can the consequences be quantified in a meaningful way? Acclaimed UCLA Professor of Political Science and Economics, Tim Groseclose, has the startling answers in this new Prager University course. Whatever you do, dont miss his final conclusion on media bias.

The media would be screaming for impeachment if it was a Republican president in office for all the terrible economy reports, scandals, and healthcare debacle.

Not too many of our liberal friends commenting here in favor of this administrations constant ability of shooting itself in foot almost daily......
 
Change they don't want to believe in?

Anybody notice...today....Obamascare isn't the headline issue?
 
Even though reports of problems are continuing in 'other' media.
 
No MSM media bias here?

Poor Barack Obama. Ending his fifth year as the world’s most powerful man, he is running out of scapegoats and fairy tales. Blaming George W. Bush has lost its punch, and the ObamaCare debacle is shredding the myths he is competent and honest.
 
Still, before he rides off into that sunset of self-pity and low poll ratings, he ought to invite his remaining friends over for a heart-to-heart. That way he can tell The New York Times that its fanatical support does him no favors.
 
Instead, it feeds his arrogance and reinforces his belief that he can solve any problem with another speech. The unflattering truth doesn’t stand a chance — ­until it is too late.
 
Not that the president would admit any of that, of course, but the Obama Protection Racket, led by the Times, cuts both ways. It is a key reason he has defied political gravity for so long, and also why he is now in deep trouble. As watchdogs became lapdogs, the presidential bubble grew impenetrable, isolating him from ordinary Americans and the trickle-down pain of his policies.
 
From the broadcast networks to MSNBC and most large papers, Obama got the benefit of every doubt. The double standards were a daily disgrace so routine, they mostly provoked a shrug instead of outrage.
 
The mainstream media is acting only because the story is too big to ignore. Had it been mildly skeptical sooner, it could have exposed the law’s destructive rules and prevented the disaster.
 
Yet the Times, especially its editorial page, remains his most devoted cheerleader. The latest example is embarrassing enough to make a Gray Lady blush.
 
 
At least that was the pattern ­until now. ObamaCare is such a direct hit on so many people that it could change everything.
 
If predictions are accurate that tens of millions of families will lose their current insurance policies, Obama and the Democratic lemmings will be seriously damaged.

True Pundit is issuing an Amber Alert for a missing CBS News story. The story was short, weighed very positive for Donald Trump, was last seen at a CBS affiliate website, and vanished early Monday morning, approximately 3 am EST.
 
Voters with any information on this story’s whereabouts are encouraged to be quiet and act like nothing happened, just like CBS who is refusing to comment on our questions of what happened to the Trump poll story. I mean, if the poll showed Hillary Clinton leading by +5 chances are there wouldn’t be a story on a missing story.
 
We now know that CBS reported/moved a favorable Trump poll on Sunday at 11:08 a.m. EST showing the Republican nominee up by 5+ points in Pennsylvania, Then hours later, the story was mysteriously scrubbed from http://www.cbs8.com.
 
CBS, however, can scrub the story from its web site but cannot delete its existence from search engines.http://truepundit.com/cbs-news-deletes-poll-story-crediting-trump-for-5-point-lead-in-pennsylvania-mysteriously-vanished/
