I literally choked on a glass of iced tea and had a bunch come out of my nose when he called the New York Times a conservative institution on his CardPlayer.com video.Do you have any idea of how much iced tea burns your nose on the way up?

He's right.Stop watching Fox News. NYT is a conservative paper.The fact that it doesn't blindly report governmebt propaganda doesn't suddenly make it liberal,The Nation is liberal. NYT is conservative.Allthough McManus was a dick the one time I met him.

Sorry Smasheroo. The New York Times, along with the Washington Post, the Boston Globe, and whatever paper they have at UC Berkeley(wink,wink) are the Canonical Four of Liberal Journalism. No one who knows ANYTHING about editorial bias would say different. Back to lurking.

For such a smart guy....that is one dumb statement.I nominate this for the dumbest thing ever said by a smart person.

Doesn't he announce for the WWE? Oh wait, that's Jim Ross. Forget I said anything. Read Al Franken's book Lying liars and the lies the tell, or some variation of that, great book. On this topic.

Finally i get to flame you for posting things you know nothing about. I'm not even gonna argue with you because if you believe that youa) have never read the NY timesB) have never read another paper besides the NY timesc) Cannot understand basic american politicsPlease stop posting thoughts that make everyone dumber

I agree with Smash. The US has been so blinded by hardcore conservative news outlets like Fox that anything remotely moderate is classified as "liberal". When the NYT refuses to toe the government line they are branded as liberal by neo-cons like O'Reilly and Hannity. Its a sad state of affairs when the media's conservative bias becomes viewed as "fair and balanced".

[Smasharoo]

No one who knows ANYTHING about editorial bias would say different. Actually anyone who did know anything about it would say diffrent.Anyone who's a complete sucker who accepts baseless statements from unqualified sources wouldn't.I'm not going to bother to get into this with you. You've been brainwashed or whatever the case may be.If you want to cite some objective sources of data indicating your case, feel free. If you want to continue on the "everyne knows..." line of thinking, go sit in the echo chamber with O'Rilely, Limbauh, Hannity et all and find out what you're suppsed to think this week.

This isn't opinion, it is fact. The NY times has been censured by congress several times for its liberal, undermining views. Ever since Viet Nam they have shown outrageous stories of war, just like they do today. Their NY empire is one of the conerstones of NY Liberalism. Not to say the post or Daily is better, but they are the benchmark for leftists papers in NY.

You mentioned ONE conservative news outlet.....that is proof right there.

This post makes me laugh. This poster acts like every major news outlet is completely right wing. All of the major networks are still left leaning, FoxNews is the only real conservative news outlet. CNN is basically the Communist News Network they are so far left. Don't act like the entire news world is now right wing because it isn't. The NYT is even further left than the major news networks. Anybody who says they are a conservative paper is either blind, illiterate, or just plain ignorant.

[Smasharoo]

Let me get this straight.....I should read a liberal book, written by a liberal writer to tell me that there is no liberal bias in the media.....You guys are too much!!!!!!!You should probably look at the dozen or so research projects the last ten years that show that there's a CONSERVATIVE bias in the meia.Don't let the facts get in the way of a convienent lie though.Would be out of character if you're that much of a sucker that you think the NYT is liberal.

:whistle: waiting... just waiting... for smash's response.Is a guy like Smash good for the game?lol

Nope. Instead you should read Ann Coultier or Hannity's books, and let them explain how liberals are evil people who are bassically terrrorists.But seriously.....blah blah blah. This thread belongs on RGP
