:Never have I seen a definition of "mainstream media" based on numbers of patrons only. Take care: by your definition, Fox would be comfortably mainstream while [[CNN]] stood in danger of losing that status--along with [[The New York Times]], which is losing circulation with every passing year, if not every passing month.

:But you know, or should know, that that's not how it works. Why do you think that [[United States Senate|Senator]] [[Diane Feinstein]] wants to reinstitute the [[Fairness Doctrine]]? It's because she wants to rid the earth of the [[alternative media]] and leave only the [[mainstream media]] as I have defined and listed it in this article.--[[User:TerryH|TerryH]]<sup>[[User talk:TerryH|Talk]]</sup> 23:29, 1 August 2007 (EDT)

Conservatives feel that everyone in the television MSM ''except'' Fox News has a liberal bias. That means ABC, CBS, NBC, and CNN. So the liberals think one station (Fox News) is conservative. That's leaves ABC, CBS, NBC and CNN with a liberal bias. It doesn't make sense for liberals to think that the 'MSM' is quite far to the right. --[[User:Crocoite|Crocoite]] 21:37, 1 August 2007 (EDT)
