Yes, the left wing media must be killed.

THE ARGUMENT over whether the national press is dominated by liberals is 
over. Since 1962, there have been 11 surveys of the media that sought 
the political views of hundreds of journalists. In 1971, they were 53 
percent liberal, 17 percent conservative. In a 1976 survey of the 
Washington press corps, it was 59 percent liberal, 18 percent 
conservative. A 1985 poll of 3,200 reporters found them to be 
self-identified as 55 percent liberal, 17 percent conservative. In 1996, 
another survey of Washington journalists pegged the breakdown as 61 
percent liberal, 9 percent conservative. Now, the new study by the Pew 
Research Center for the People and the Press found the national media to 
be 34 percent liberal and 7 percent conservative.

Over 40-plus years, the only thing that's changed in the media's 
politics is that many national journalists have now cleverly decided to 
call themselves moderates. But their actual views haven't changed, the 
Pew survey showed. Their political beliefs are close to those of 
self-identified liberals and nowhere near those of conservatives. And 
the proportion of liberals to conservatives in the press, either 3-to-1 
or 4-to-1, has stayed the same. That liberals are dominant is now beyond 
dispute.

Does this affect coverage? Is there really liberal bias? The answers 
are, of course, yes and yes. It couldn't be any other way.
