P.S.: I will point out, however, that your nitwit comment was made *in lieu of* addressing my examples of right-wing mainstream media bias. Ah, so I am right. In order for you to consider the media liberal they would actually have to be what most people consider far left wing. No, I don't think the media is far left wing but does have a general slant to the left that they try to keep subtle so as to not openly appear biased thus ruining their credablility. As for ABC's decisions about who got previews of the mini series and who didn't, I can't say, but one example of showing a little favoritism to one side, if in fact it happened,( some how the Clinton administration got previews or they wouldn't be complaining) ,doesn't correct decades of showing favoritism to the other. CBS I'm sure, made a business decision. They were about to offend an entire nation, one that had voted Ronald Reagan, America's most popular president by having No one other than Barbara Streisand's hubby play the main role among other conflicts of interest. CBS didn't want to risk it. As for Disney, who gives a crap what they put out or don't put out. For them it's business also. Your three examples can't begin to balance decades of abuse. __._,_.___ To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'
