Finally, an Admission

Katie Couric, though she did seem to have trouble saying it, yesterday morning admitted that liberals control mainstream media.

Media Research Center
Couric contended that “most people, I think, on the street would say the media it tends, tend to be more liberal than conservative" and she proposed: “Aren't most people in journalism, primarily, except for say on Fox, and in certain conservative publications, aren't they for the most part, and of course the media is, are not monolithic, but pro-choice, you know, against prayer in school, probably favor affirmative action? I mean don't you think that's, that's fairly typical? And if so is it, why isn't it fair to say that liberals, sort of, are controlling the mainstream media?"

I wonder what the conversation was like in her bosses office after the show and how this will be explained away?

There's no doubt that the media holds a monopoly on mainstream North America. It's disturbing if a monopoly doesn't represent an accurate view of what people want and not only that but a positive culture.

I would think the success of Foxnews in the cable ratings war is a fair indication of Americas increasing dislike for CNN and the Network news broadcast.

Add to that the utter failure of Air America to grab zero support or anything beyond Al's looney sound bites and you have a clear showing Americas feelings.
