Buffoons conduct 8-year study of '08 campaign

There's no end to what the right-wing noise machine will come up with, is there?

The Media Research Center - a right-wing media analysis group founded by Brent "Bozo" Bozell III - has made a spectacle of itself with its latest endeavor: a study of the current presidential campaign.

Trouble is, the MRC calls its own report an 8-year study. You mean the 2008 campaign was going on in 2000? You mean I almost got arrested at that Bush rally in Devou Park for nothing?

You're idiots, MRC.

So what's the MRC's conclusion from this magical time-traveling study? It says TV news coverage is biased in favor of Obama because the networks failed to call him "liberal" often enough.

I swear I am not making this up.

Honestly, is Obama really even very liberal? The center of debate has moved so far to the right that what's liberal by today's standards could be considered conservative by any unadjusted measure.

According to the MRC, the networks gave Obama the Democratic nomination by not calling him "liberal" as much as the MRC felt necessary.

Alright, Media Research Center, that's about enough out of you for one day.

This is why Media Matters for America charged that the MRC viewed the media "through a funhouse mirror that renders everything - even the facts themselves - as manifestations of insidious bias."
