I think they would jump on anyone with a "past". All media seems to love salacious stories no matter the political leanings.

I have a hard time believing that the whole TV media with the exeption of Fox is "leftist" and pushing some sort of agenda, but it's a great excuse if one disagrees with something that is reported. Not that I'm saying that the media doesn't take sides or slant their stories at times but I would hope their is still some journalistic integrity left.

There are others than just FOX that will report.
But much of the liberal media is shameful to say the least.
Hard to see it from where you sit though.
I wouldn't even begin to guess what your press is like, know nothing about, and to assume is, well you know.
Sure you could Google and find a list of stories about the left delayed, and how long it took before they were forced to put it up, even major stories.
And many times it will be one paragraph on page 16, and it is a major story.
It is one of the reasons many liberal news outlets are now on the verge of bankruptcy.

Please provide examples, maybe you can convince me

As a matter of interest also, which of the major TV news media do you find "leftist"? And do you think FOX is fair and balanced or a opposing "rightist" view to what you are calling "leftist".

(These are honest questions, I'm not looking for points to argue for the sake of argueing no matter what my thoughts on the answers.)
