Bias in the media?

I told you so.

My favorite line is:

"To improve coverage, BMI recommends that the networks carefully select a range of economists and analysts to balance negative reporting and cover stories that reflect the economic data, not the reporter's opinion."

i'm sure that because of BMI's work ABC, CBS, and NBC are now all scrambling to find economists and analysts who aren't yes-men, as though they didn't already know their "analyses" were filled with half-truths and blatantly editorialized reality.

Henceforth, i will refer to the mainstream media as "the Man" and interpret all statements referring to "the Man" as such. For example:

Random Passer-by: "The Man is holding me down."

Statement as i henceforth choose to hear it: "The mainstream media foregoes truth in lieu of their agenda."
