Media Matters for Liberal Hypocrites

According to their website, “Media Matters for America is a Web-based, not-for-profit, progressive research and information center dedicated to comprehensively monitoring, analyzing, and correcting conservative misinformation in the U.S. media.” Sounds nice, doesn’t it? I mean who wants to be misinformed, and who wants their news to be biased? There is just one huge issue, “correcting conservative misinformation”, not correcting misinformation.

Media Matters, and many other groups, attack the conservative media, and scream over the fact that they are biased, yet they are just as biased. It is hypocrisy at its finest, or perhaps at its worst. Organizations like Media Matters are even more insidious than the biased media, because people come to these organizations expecting to learn to avoid biases. Instead, at Media Matters you learn that the conservatives are lying and brainwashing us, and I don’t deny that they do, but aren’t the liberals doing the same thing?

I don’t mind having biased media, but I do mind when people are being mislead to think only one side does it.
