What did Maobama know and when did he know it?

Let's go through the thread.

I say that the fourth institution has a bias, I provide a link to that. You say Fox is "number 1" I prove that there is a difference between network and cable news and that the Networks are watched far more than the Cable News, you say that it isn't quite as big a disparity, I show that the numbers are on my side... you then say I haven't proved the 10:1 thing...

Does this mean that you agree that almost all major news outlets are biased towards one party and that far more people get their information from those outlets than do from Fox News who is number 1 in Cable news?

I agree that the link you provided at first provided information that stated that UCLA researchers found statistical evidence of a left bias in some news organizations, and not others.

Did you read their report - dated 2005? Here's the link:
http://newsroom.ucla.edu/portal/ucla...UCLA-6664.aspx

Then, you offered up this link - from 2007: http://www.journalism.org/node/1363

And you ignored the sidebar that read "polls show more people say they “regularly” get news from cable. Source: Nielsen Media Research".

Then you posted these two, from 2011 (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/07/13/network-evening-news-rati_n_896883.html) and 2012 (http://blogs.orlandosentinel.com/en...nnel-wins-july-ratings-msnbc-runs-second.html), and I haven't seen any text in either that support your contention that network news has 10X the ratings of cable news.

Here's what you claimed:

And my links back it up. Reality: far, far more people watch the Network News than all of the Cable News combined. Basically, reiterating the thread.

Your claim is that because the disparity might not be as high as I claimed (even though my links show it is), that what?

Can you actually tell us what your point is in this thread?

The Fourth institution is largely a branch of the Democratic Party. It is a shame, but in the age of information ignorance is a choice. Too bad so many in America choose ignorance.

You mean the Fourth Estate? The Fourth Estate is mostly owned by rich conservatives. What the heck are you talking about?
