Media Bias: The Mouths and the Money

Wow is all I can say.

So far in this election cycle, giving to the Democrats favors the Republicans by a 15:1 margin. Over time, the margin is 100:1!

Isn't it odd that Fox News had no recorded contributions to the republican party. Sean Hannity, Roger Ailes, etc, better step up to the plate. MSNBC, my cable news channel of choice, gave more to the republican party then to the democratic party. Very interesting.

Oh, so now you're upset because Fox doesn't give to the Republican Party? Sort of messes up the liberal theory that Fox only supports Republican/conservative views, doesn't it? Sorta rains on your parade?

Not at all, why ever would I want the republicans to get more support. I'm just curious as to why Hannity, et al, won't part with a buck to support candidate McCain. I wouldn't go so far as to insinuate there is something wrong with the figures but it is a bit odd don't you think?
