I believe that (e:matthew) used the phrase "slight exagerration," so I wouldn't consider his statistic a "lie."

Yes, the media bias issue is largely based on money. But face it - the mass media is controlled by large corporations that tend to have financial ties to conservatives. So the majority of reporting is clearly conservatively biased. I don't understand how so many people can criticize Michael Moore for being biased when Fox News is so slanted to the right that the viewer feels like he's at a pep rally. Moore is a movie-maker and he does not claim to be neutral. But the news should be as unbiased as possible.

No, I don't have any statistics. If I had the time, maybe I'd write a thesis on it. But for now, use your common sense. Since ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX, the Buffalo News, the New York Times, and most of the rest decide to take a conservative slant, there are a few small newspapers and radio shows that attempt to tell the other side of the story.

So as (e:matthew) says, give us liberals some say once in a while - please.

As for working together to find solutions, the idea is grand, but the reality isn't there. We have two major parties that are supposed to have two different ideals. How can we work together when one side wants to minimize taxes for the rich and the other side wants to raise them to provide social services? It almost always comes down to money, and it will almost always be an issue of haves against have-nots.

Why is it that I cannot pass over Clash of the Titans? Every time I see it's on, I have to stop for at least 10 minutes.

It's that damn little robot owl. Gets me every time.

Friday - good food and fun.

Saturday - drove to Canandaigua to find that big sister had stayed up unitl 8:30 AM drinking in the hot tub. Who says married people can't have fun?

Sunday - shopping and lunch in Rochester with my long-lost friend Beth. Well, it's only been a few weeks, but it feels like years.

SQB - Sorry I didn't stop. I was very late to meet drChlorine. Sorry DrC.

Jeremy - Send me your resume. They are particularly interested in people willing to travel to places like Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, so let me know if that interests you.
