Hmmm...Notice Anything Funny? « Media Distortions »

I wonder why his political affiliation isn't mentioned?

You know, since news media are usually big corporations, and big corporations are inherently capitalist and therefore must be conservative, that means that the governer must be a Republican and so the by-default conservative news media is downplaying the connection to his party to help Republicans save face in a way that Democrats would never do...

Oops. Maybe not...

My wife noticed that when she first saw the news about McGreedy. If there's no media bias, why are scandals about Democrats never accompanied by their partisan affiliation, while scandals about Republicans sound like the entire Republican Party must be involved?
