Podcast 33: Media Bias & Malpractice With Dan Gainor

August 25, 2009 / 10:19 am • By Dr. Melissa Clouthier

Dan Gainor of the Media Research Center, Townhall, and Newsbusters joined me to discuss the media’s bias–both covert and overt–and how it shapes public opinion. It does work. The media does shape opinion, even though most news organizations have moved to a British model of journalism. The difference is that a Brit journalist will admit his bias, whereas an American journalist likes to view himself as objective. His delusion makes him more dangerous.

Below, you’ll see some links to some other podcasts. I’d like to draw your attention to Steve Schippert of National Review Online Threat’s Watch. His show is a must for anyone wanting to stay informed about world events. He lays out what is happening strategically with North Korea. I highly recommend listening to his show.

But Before You Say That…

  • Comments that are inappropriate, rude, completely stupid, or obviously meant to bait others into a flame war may be deleted.  If that happens to you and you want to throw a tantrum about “free speech,” do it on your own blog.  Basically, if you wouldn't say it to someone's face without the shield of anonymity, don't say it here.
  • If you are a new commenter or are using a new e-mail address, your comment will go to moderation.  Even regular commenters get stuck in moderation sometimes.  Please be patient; your comment will be published as soon as I can get to it.
  • Comments that will never get published are those that are posted under the name “anonymous” and those using an obviously fake e-mail address.
