Yes Mr. Bozell, the networks and cable news shows are hopelessly biased left and think Rubio's drink is funny and needs to be played over and over again. But we never hear you complain that Fox and talk radio are hopelessly biased too, just in the other direction. Sean Hannity, for example, found Howard Dean's hurrah to his supporters funny enough to play over and over too. Bias to partisans means when someone is prejudiced against their side and not their adversary's, but that is why it goes on. Until enough commentators shoot their darts at their own side's excesses, it will continue forever.

DHE: It is one thing for a NEWS program to report something; quite another for a POLITICAL ANALYSIS show (Hannity) to comment on something. Liberals do not seem to be able to identify and separate the two. Bias is expected on Hannity's show. Bias should not be seen in news shows' reportage--but IS seen there. THAT is the problem.

So you equate Sean Hannity with the combined news staffs of NBC, ABC, MSNBC, CNN, and CBS? It all balances out, does it?

Actually, Dean's shout wasn't exactly "Hurrah!" He sounded mentally deranged.

The Media's Republican Latinophobia

At what point will the public tire of liberal journalists lamenting that the Republican Party is overwhelmingly white and thrilled about it? They've been drawing that cartoon so long surely they'll eventually run out of ink. They love their 2012 narrative that every non-white group is rushing to Obama and the left, and they want to keep it that way.

So what do you do when the GOP elects or nominates a black or Hispanic (as they've done constantly)? You rip them personally, mercilessly. Ask Justice Thomas.

This is why everyone should have expected something absurd from the media when Sen. Marco Rubio...
