Where is the "leftist" media in the US?

It is OK to slur fundamentalist Christians. But anyone making a similar disparaging comment about any of the "politically correct” minority groups would have been dismissed.That is Bernard Goldberg’s point, laid out in 223 pages of his new book, "Bias: A CBS Insider Exposes How the Media Distort the News” (Regnery).This is not Rush Limbaugh complaining for the 100th time of "bias in the liberal media.”This comes from the pen of a man who was a correspondent for CBS News, having worked inside the company for 28 years...Goldberg, who spent his last years at CBS in the doghouse for his 1996 Wall Street Journal piece, says that if these correspondents were to take a lie detector test as to whether they slanted the news leftward, they would deny it and pass with flying colors.Many of them don’t consider that they’re leaning in any political direction. They really think they are simply mainstream. There is no other side of the argument except what you hear from a few right-wing nut cases. In their world, mainstream conservatism doesn’t exist.As one Washington news correspondent once said to me, "There is no left wing.” There’s just normal goodness, as opposed to the extremists.

I asked Joe what I should think, and he told me right away that only I could decide that. Even if I decided not to get confirmed, I was growing up and so it was time I started deciding what I was going to do and believe, and not have others decide it for me.Then he told me a story.Long before he had been a missionary in China. The village he was in was very poor, the crops had failed and people were near starving. One of the warlords showed up and told the people, if they would abandon their current master and join him he would see they got food. Just believe in him and all will be okay. Any that did not believe in him would be left to starve to death.The warlord could have saved everyone, he had wealth and more than enough food, but instead he wanted to save only those who would follow him.“What do you think of the warlord?”, he asked?The orange Nehi was cold, and I tasted it on the front of my tongue and in my nose. So different from coke, or the grape Nehi and the questions ran back and forth just behind my eyes.A week passed and once again I sat down with Father Joe. “What did you decide about the warlord?”, he asked.“Did he really have enough food for everybody?”, I asked in return.“Yes he did.”, Said Father Joe.“Then he should have saved everybody, not just those that believed in him.”, I answered.
