No spin here . . .
Headlines and links from the MSNBC "Politics" section, beneath a story titled:
• Success of Moore film has Republicans rattled
• Poll: Kerry has Hispanic vote locked up
• Dillard won't seek Illinois Senate seat
• Kerry takes gang plan to Urban League
• Kucinich to formally back Kerry
• S.F. may let some non-citizens vote
• Trippi: John Edwards' rotten luck
• Watch 'Picking Our Presidents' on MSNBC
• Kerry near Bush in post-primary spending
• Ice cream mogul puts Bush in hot seat
• Bush saying little about 2nd term plans
• GOP plans Boston 'war room'
• Jenna gives media a little razz
• Measuring presidents via the economy
• New poll smiles on Kerry
• Dillard leaves Illinois Republicans hanging
• Labor's front cracks as convention nears
• Delegates, ticket differ on marriage
• WP: Parties wage battle of databases
• White House Derby: Kerry's to lose
• Bush vs. Kerry at a glance
• Washington Post: Bush vs. Kerry
• Day-by-day schedule of Democratic convention
• A quick look at the Democratic Convention
• Boston: For Democrats, stars and bars
• 'Multiple layers' of convention security
• Boston: The political past is everywhere
• Delegates would pick Hillary in 2008
• Labor's front cracks as convention nears
Ok . . . so their motto isn't "fair and balanced", but wouldn't you think that one of the leading web news sites in the U. S. would try just a little to mask their political preferences?
Also noticed that a poll by the Pew Research Center upon which MSNBC reports (New poll smiles on Kerry) states that the dems are "almost even with the GOP on which party is stronger on the issue of morality." Of course this is from a sampling (unknown locale) of 2,009 adults, 1,568 of which are actually registered voters. Do the math. Almost 25% of those polled aren't even registered to vote! How in the HELL can they claim a +/- 2.5% margin of error?
Obviously the claim of a media bias toward the Democratic party is just a construction of the VRWC.
