As he said, \"I know from personal experience the proneness of journalists to lie.\" And there are more journalists who also write openly about the problem with the profession. One example you might like is by an ex-CBS journalist: \r\n\r\n[Bias: A CBS Insider Exposes How the Media Distort the News](https://www.amazon.com/Bias-Insider-Exposes-Media-Distort/dp/0895261901)","subreddit_name":"media_criticism","author":"Altruistic_Camel"},{"body":"What did I say that was not honest? The managers directly responsible for WTTV news are not the managers that are directly responsible for the cable fox news.\r\n\r\nI was not able to find this story from a major news source only from liberal sites. The lawsuit that they filed was defeated and they lost a subsequent lawsuit to pay for WTTVs defense. I appreciate that you think this is a big deal but I don't think we have the whole story. I think WTTV management probably did the wrong thing in this case but I do not think this can be a total condemnation of Fox News.\r\n\r\nHere is a [link](http://www.amazon.com/Bias-Insider-Exposes-Media-Distort/dp/0895261901) to a New York Times bestseller about years and years of liberal bias at CBS news. The book is written by a former CBS reporter who won ten Emmys for journalism and the Alfred I. duPont-Columbia University Award.

However I a present couple of links that I would like you to look at. \r\n\r\np2 I understand that to be true and that was all I wanted; an admission of bias. I still maintain that capitalism does not preclude a corporation from being liberal. NY Times is not a good example, but you see my point. They are not in it for their health alone. \r\n\r\np3, I was inappropriately labeled as a shill / troll/ neoconservative / blind fox supporter and it was my knee jerk reaction of having to defend what I already knew as true. I haven't seen anyone claim to be an Anarcho-capitalist so it was my assumption. Though I believe I am right, I agree to disagree. \r\n\r\nThe page should only take you only a few (\u0026lt;ten) minutes.

[The book **Bias**, by CBS insider Bernard Goldberg](http://www.amazon.com/Bias-Insider-Exposes-Media-Distort/dp/0895261901)\r\n\r\nPlease read the 1'st paragraph of the product description. \r\n\u0026gt;Think the media are biased? CONSERVATIVES HAVE BEEN crying foul for years, **but now a veteran CBS reporter has come forward to expose how liberal bias pervades the mainstream media.** Even if you've suspected your nightly news is slanted to the left, it's far worse than you think. Breaking ranks and naming names, Emmy Award-winning broadcast journalist Bernard Goldberg reveals a corporate news culture in which the close-mindedness is breathtaking, journalistic integrity has been pawned to liberal opinion, and \"entertainment\" trumps hard news every time......................................... \r\n\r\nNote that was 2003, it has only gotten worse IMHO. \r\nI enjoyed the conversation and challenge and I hope we both can take away something positive. \r\n\r\nPS don't send Chavez a post card yet, I saw where he was cracking down on the inter-web ~!
