majority of people have liberal beliefs, polls show that, we all know it.  we see it every day on the street.

sure, they call themselves "independent" or "conservative", but the way they answer questions on issues, well... they're liberal.

Therefore, we'll see more liberal coverage, on more liberal networks - because that's what more viewers want.



If the history channel had more fans than the NFL, we'd all be watching WWII constantly.  Liberal TV just has more fans.

Also, for this image -

President obama hasn't gone near the Floor of approval that Bush had, correct?  If Obama drops from low 40s to low 30s and worse, then YES, it'll get more new coverage.   What fun is "Oh, yet again, obama sits at 42% approval, for the 1200th straight day" lol.

Its news when one drops.

well, a president at 29% is going to be a much more interesting news story than one that got to 39% once and sits at 42% today, like he has for 5 years.

It's like saying "there are more news stories on Trump's bankruptcies than their are about another millionaire's financial reponsibility.  anytime a person tanks as low as bush did, it's huge interest.  There's really zero interest in obama, still at 42% after 6 years in office.  That's boring, it's status quo.  If he drops to 29% in the next 2 weeks, then the # of stories would skyrocket.

Would love to see how many of those 124 reports were FOX news ;)

yes, we all know that the media should always give equal coverage to all POTUS's at all times regardless of what is actually going on in the country

In late 20005 and early 2006 we were ~ 4 years into 2 wars that were supposed to be wrapped up in 6 weeks or 6 months and it looked like it was only getting worse with no end it sight.  We had the the Scooter Libby indictment.  We had Bush advisers ignoring subpoena's and on and on.

They've got to protect the first AA president and their investment in him.  :'(
