Fair point, I pulled the numbers out of my ass. That being said, removing the numbers, can we agree that the majority of the news media both print and TV comes from a left slant? CNN, MSNBC, NBC, CBS, and ABC all tend to mostly approach stories from a left leaning perspective with mostly left leaning journalists and talking heads. Fox is usually more to the right. There are new networks like OAN and Newsmax? that come more from the right, but those 2 don't have anything like the reach of the others I listed.
You could do the same with Newspapers. The WSJ is usually from the conservative side. I could probably tick off about a dozen that are from the left. Almost every newspaper in every major city in the U.S. has a left leaning editorial board.
So yeah, using the percentages was a haphazard guess and honestly I think it was a more favorable guess than actually exists. Now this is where you would disagree with me and say that so and so media watchdog thinks that both sides are covered the same and my reply to that is that often what is not covered is where the bias lies and also the amount of coverage. Take the Hunter Biden scenario above. There would be 24-7 coverage if that was a Trump kid dropping the N word like he is Kendrick Lamar, not a 30 second mention at the end of a show or buried inside the paper. That is above the fold news if it is a Republican's kid and the Republican President would be asked in press conferences to explain that behavior and denounce their child. Biden gets to skate.
how beyond naive are you and everyone else here?
there is a lot more than someone's take on race or the LGBTQ community that define them as liberal or conservative, and some now branded as near communists by the right, are probably right of Nixon on a lot of stuff, as the bar has been shifting hard right my entire life on most things other than race and gay rights.
and "the media" are the ones who have led the shift.
LMAO.
again, do you guys actually think the C suites at Amazon, Facebook, Comcast, AT&T, Disney/ABC/ESPN, Google, News Corp/Fox, IHeartMedia/Clear Channel, are filled with liberals, or that the talking heads rather than the execs and the corporate advertisers set the agenda?????
as for Biden, the media that support him do so because he is far right and a puppet on things they care about, and they didn't actively instal him as the DNC nominee to beat Trump..
they did so to take down Bernie, who was their real fear.
the multinational corporate conglomerates you guys call the "media" couldn't care less whether Biden or Trump won last Nov, they only cared that Bernie didn't win.
there are no "liberal" multinational corporate conglomerates in the US or the world.
"liberal" and "multinational corporate conglomerate" are literally mutually exclusive entities, and can never be anything but.
