I actually just read this due to a link to it via Free Northerner's Lightning round.
I've heard many a liberal claim that the media, academia, and journalism has a right wing bias which has always shocked me considering I thought the facts on that ludicrous position were rather well known.
However, I've seen academic types come out and basically say that this bias is not only okay, but some kind of evidence that more educated, intelligent, ect types of individuals have a left leaning bias because the world is left leaning.
