The term '''Liberal media conservative''' describes the commitment by the  mainstream news media to so-called [[fairness]]. The typical offering from the mainstream media is a single moderate conservative speaker, reporter, columnist among hundreds of fellow liberal employees.  This person's view is almost exclusively "New World" moderate and they would most likely find more in common with their liberal counterparts than with their own conservative base. On occasion, a single true conservative such as [[Bill Kristol]] finds employment with the mainstream media, but it never lasts because of their commitment to real [[conservative]] viewpoints. The [[liberal media]] demands that they hire their brand of conservative- that will attack conservatives.
