The media is liberal.

Reasons to agree:

1. 75% to 85% of reporters self identify themselves as democrats.
2. People who go into journalism have the luxury of not caring about making a living. These artsy types don’t want to be constrained with putting food on the table. They want the government to take care of all of these so they can sit around and talk about how smart they are.
3. "Indeed, the media elites covering national politics would be indistinguishable from the Democratic Party except the Democratic Party isn't liberal enough. A higher percentage of the Washington press corps voted for Clinton in 1992 than did his demographic category: 'Registered Democrats.'" -- Ann Coulter, P. 56

Reasons to disagree:

1. Reality is liberal. Journalist are in touch with reality.
