Mike, each and every media outlet is biased in some way. There are humans involved at each level who have opinions, prejudices, and preconceived notions about how the world works.

From the reporter to the editor to the producer to the presenter to the owner of the station / network, each of them has some influence as to what parts of the story will be presented, and what parts won't.

However, because you sit so far to one side, you will see more of the media being biased because almost everyone is left of you (I think Rush and O'Reilly are left of you, really), and as a result, you will see the media as being very heavily "leftard". That is because what you are seeing in the media does not match up to the opinions, prejudices and preconcieved notions that you have about the world and how it works.

NRA sure wouldn't applaud MM movies mostly because MM made Charlton Heston look like a nimrod in his last movie. I suspect he wouldn't get a big round of applause at the national gun dealers meeting either, nor probably not a GM board meeting. Mostly because he revealed too much to the world about each of those groups, and made them look foolish.
