The comment wasn't really directed at you... it just seems that when a person thinks the world around them is biased, then it's probably the person who needs to question his or her own bias.

There is a huge difference between thinking most of the world is balanced and Fox is biased to the right, and thinking Fox is biased to the right (or is fair) and that most of the rest of the world is biased to the left.

But if I make a claim, and all you do is chuckle without addressing the points I made specifically, then I guess you haven't done anything to sway my opinion.

I still maintain that the idea of a vast liberal media bias is a concept invented by the right and perpetuated by the right, so that they can draw in an audience that accepts their shock talk as unquestioned fact.
