, 13:36, March 9, 2007Six Times More Liberal
Finally, I would like to ask, as I honestly do not know, how this is an example of bias (as the article title indicates it is)? Is it some form of Pro-Ivy-League-Rutgerian bias?

== Six Times More Liberal ==
''"Polls show that about twice as many Americans identify themselves as "conservative" compared with "liberal", and that ratio has been increasing for two decades.[1] But on Wikipedia, about three times as many editors identify themselves as "liberal" compared with "conservative".[2] That suggests Wikipedia is six times more liberal than the American public."''
This is comparing an anonymous poll to non-anonymous affiliations that people put on their user pages, right? --[[User:Monotreme|Monotreme]] 08:36, 9 March 2007 (EST)
