Hmm, that’s an interesting theory, Matt – what do you look to for support?

Something else to consider is that a good deal of these syndicated columnists get the gig to balance the local editorial boards…

Agreed, Anastasisa though I confess to subscribing to some services with equally provocative headlines, just to “see” if you know what I mean. I can’t help myself.

As for Media Matters’ report – also agree – they do an excellent job detailing how they did what they did. If someone doesn’t like how MM did it, let them do their own, the way they think it should be done. At least MM is transparent.

I clicked and clicked off quickly. I can’t take any site seriously that has an article called “Liberalism is a mental disease.” That tells you all you need to know about the extreme bias of this analysis. Media Matters is extremely fact-oriented and reliable, and in fact, I have to question if it’s trying a little too hard to be balanced, given that it categorizes David Broder as “centrist.”

You are being tricked.

This is the most flawed study I have read in a while, and I understand how to read social science studies.

I have provided for you the most thorough analysis on the Internet of Media Matters’ study. You can read it below.
