I think any pretense of our media being "fair" and unbiased was taken out back and executed long ago.

Of course the media is biased!!! They are complete whores for ratings and tailor stories, choose to report and not report, accordingly. The media watch polls closer than anyone. The instant the people got sick of, and started questioning the Iraq War, they quit cheerleading it and all pretended to be all concerned.... The media are the ultimate panderers.

The Village Voice isn't written for conservatives, and Fox News isn't intended for liberals. People LIKE self-confirmation, and dislike hearing news that goes against theie own biases, and I can't imagine there are a whole lot people out there who weigh and balance everything, or get their news from a variety of sources.

I'm not aware of anything that mandates that the media be neutral. Why is this always such a surprise to people when some outlet airs some story you don't agree with? Nobody was accusing the MSM of liberality when all of them salaciously jumped on every sordid detail of the Lewinsky affair. Where was the righteous indignation, then?

So, come on. Everyone knows the media isn't neutral. That's why Fox News was created to begin with. No victim card to play, here, Grim.
