    Not dying, reshaping

    I don't take exception to your statistics. I do question their actual impact. I continue to hear how liberal and biased the media is. Let's take for example CNN. Often considered to be a bastion of the liberal media , it is becoming much more difficult to sense their left leanings. Certainly the loudest voices in media are right to far right. At this time Limbaugh is the crowned king of radio. Hannity, O'Reilly, Laura Ingraham, and Rusty Humphries just name a few of the heavily spotlighted rightist media hosts. This is not to say that leftists such as K. Olbermann have been silenced.

    Perhaps I am at geographical "market" disadvantage. Living in central Kentucky, I have no radio options other than right to extreme right programs. So after listening to these programs, I then search the news on the net for some balance. When I use what are considered "reliable" new sources, there is not enough of a swing left to even bring those opinions back to center.

    I will absolutely grant that Hollywood produces liberal films. And perhaps it is true to say that there are more liberal professors, although 10:1 sounds skewed. But to say that the right does not have the microphone is simply not true.
