Pleased to hear you say that, Jay. Most of my conservative friends
hate it, won't listen to it, because (they say) it's "liberal."
Not for nothing is it known as National Partisan Radio.
Well, Dan, it's also known as National Petroleum Radio.
Names like those are thrown around by people who don't like the fact
that the media don't exactly agree with them.
The truth is, the media is a corporate entity, and will usually do its best
to reflect whatever it perceives to be public opinion--in other words, just
like any other business, they seek to keep their customers happy and protect
their bottom line. If they were ever to truly fulfill their proper role as
an independent "fourth estate", they'd question every word out of our
leader's mouths, and then you'd *really* hear a lot of whining about "bias".
