Line 1: − Both [[Conservative]]s and [[Liberals]] use the [[acronym]] '''MSM''' to describe the '''[[mainstream media]]''' and its apparent [[bias]] against their viewpoint.+ − − ==Mainstream Media== − ===CBS=== − In 2006 CBS.com wrote an article on blogs <ref> [http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2006/07/09/sunday/main1786520.shtml?source=search_story Brave New Blogging World]</ref> which accurately describes the conservative view of the MSM: − − <blockquote> The blog format is only a couple of years old. But already, there's a tension between many bloggers and what they derisively call the MSM, the mainstream media. − − "They don't believe that you are unbiased, objective, fair a lot of times.

Emmett Tyrell Jr. entitled "Tyrell: Goodbye MSM... and good riddance!" <ref> http://www.cnn.com/2006/POLITICS/03/02/tyrrell.msm/index.html?iref=newssearch</ref> The article talks about the [[alternative press]] vs the MSM: − − <blockquote> So we hear this week that President George W. Bush is taking delight in the spread of the "alternative press" (read conservatives on the internet, in talk radio, in print, and at Fox) and the gentle detumesence of "mainstream media" (read liberal media, or more precisely, Democratic media). Well I join him in his satisfaction. </blockquote> − − ==References== − [http://alternet.org/workplace/58108/], [http://alternet.org/mediaculture/55915/], [http://alternet.org/story/54339/] − − <references/> − − [[category:media]] − [[category:political terms]]
