That's because the "media," as currently operating, is wholly liberal and leftist in ideology. Thus, they're simply being true to themselves. They'd be biased if they actually had any ethics-and-professionalism-driven objectivity. For a long time now, they have functioned as Fifth Columnists, traitors, to democracy. Thus, their perfect fit with the coaltion of liberals and leftists current called the Democratic Party. C’mon, Bob, there’s no media bias in covering Sarah Palin.
