I missed the staff meeting but the minutes show (Dan

If you are a liberal, you see the media as being balanced or somewhat
conservative. But if you are conservative, you see fox news as being
balanced and most of the media as liberal. If you think about it,
this is natural.

If I believe that abortion is okay, any article against abortion will
be seen as far right. If I believe that abortion is the same as
murder, and article that is pro-abortion will be seen as ultra
liberal.

So the question ought to be where the media is with respect to public
opinion.
Since the public is more liberal on both coasts, and the media is
mostly located on the coasts, I would say the media is more liberal
than the public.

Note that Jim Rozen and Ed Huntress cosider themselves as
conservatives. They probably are more conservative than their
neighbors, but not as conservative as some in this group. But they
live on the East coast. If they lived in the rural South, they might
consider themselves as liberals.

Shoot, there are even jokes about it: Orange County (California) where
you join the GOP to get the liberal vote.
Berzerkley where you join the Socialist Party to pick up the Moderate
Vote
Massachusetts, where you talk to the Kennedys to get the Moderate
position.

Etc, etc, etc.

Then, to add to the irony, the wingnuts claim the media is "liberal."
Lewis Carroll would be mighty proud of these guys!
