Jp on April 15 you listed a slew of media outlets that you contend to be liberally bias; does it not seem odd to you that the majority of trusted news outlets these days would be liberally bias when America seems to be fairly evenly split between liberals and conservatives, or to suit the terms of this debate Republicans and Democrats. By contending that the vast majority of today’s political media is liberally bias you assert that the vast majority of America’s population is left wing, which as we can see in our judicial, legislative and executive branches of government is not the case.--HKK

:#Conservatives do not apply to go to journalism school as frequently as liberals do. The reason: Those who can, do. Those who can't, teach. And those who don't even know enough to teach, scribble.

:#Even when conservatives ''do'' apply to journalism schools, they either don't get in or get hounded out of school, not being able to handle the overwhelming and unremitting hostility of the "learning environment" directed toward conservatives generally.--[[User:TerryH|TerryH]]<sup>[[User talk:TerryH|Talk]]</sup> 15:27, 3 July 2007 (EDT)
