The Liberal Media Myth

There is no liberal media bias. Further evidence:

Indeed, a Pew Research Center survey found that of the top 10 most-covered candidates in the midterm elections, conservatives held the top three spots.

Here's more evidence. I asked AOL's Relegence team, which tracks more than 30,000 news sites on the Web, to compare coverage of comparable liberals and conservatives over the past 12 months.

Of course journalists tend to be politically liberal, but they're so often concerned about this myth that they overcompensate by swinging their reporting to the right.
