TvNewsLIES Headline News

TVNL Editor's Comments: “Now even Republicans are saying it!” This is the phrase you hear just before the corporate media decides that something might be worth considering. For years now the American corporate news media has shown that they are only willing to consider issues, claims, opinions or information if at least one Republican agrees with it.. The notion of “maybe it IS true if a Republican admits it” is a clear and open indication of bias in the media, and there is no hiding which way the bias leans. We may have a liberal media but they just happen to be biased in favor of the right. It is right out there in the open, just watch for it. Think about it! – Jesse, Editor, TvNewsLIES.org
