So-Called Liberal Media

There is a new CBS Poll. It's quite an interesting poll, but I'd like to draw your attention to the headline. It should be enough to put to rest the myth of the "Liberal Media" FOR EVER. It reads:

"CBS Poll: Vets Favor Bush"

A perfect example of the "Liberal Media." Actually, there are TONS of findings in this poll, and overall, it's DEVASTATING to Bush. But what's the headline? "VETS FAVOR BUSH." The first instinct of the "Liberal" CBS was to spin so that it seemed to favor Bush.

How about these headlines instead?
