Bullshit. Reality didn't move left - conservatives moved hard right and then cried "BIAS!!!!!" when the world didn't conform to their perspective. The Wall Street Journal is decidedly conservative and it has reporters. The Economist is decidedly conservative and it has reporters. If these organizations are not conservative enough for the author, he needs to go soak his head.For conservatives, it’s much more than that. The sheer density of the liberal world view in mainstream press outlets—of Democrats working in media—has created an atmosphere that far exceeds the mere distrust of the typical partisan.
Good point. I don't see either the WSJ or Economist (to which I have been a subscriber for almost 20 years?), as "Conservative". But that is because American Republicans have pulled the word "Conservative" so far to the right that it is now equivalent to "cognitively dissonant/insane/borderline psychotic". I was always more conservative than the "lefties", and was pretty happy with the Clintonian co-opting of republican programs. But it probably also made for bitter Republicans, which led to the loonies bearing the red R of shame today. Fuck anyone that calls themselves a Republican today.
