"First rate - very detailed look at right wing media bias and provides much support for the fact that clams of "liberal bias" are the right's equivalent of screaming at the ump to get a favorable ruling later in the game."
"I made the claim a couple years ago on my blog that the media is sensational, not liberal. I was not familiar with this book when I said that. Since then, I keep running in to claims of liberal media bias while seeing studies done showing this not to be the case. This book tries to make a case for non-liberal media bias. The writing is a bit challenging to consume, at times, but the information included *is* good if you can get through occasional awkward paragraph or page. More importantly, the references included to the notes appendix are also good sources for answering the "What Liberal Media?" question."
