Liberal Media Bias and Republican Eunuchs

March 19, 2006

There’s a new blog in town, by Matthew A. Roberts: The Politics of Prudence. I hope the title is just for show, since there are already too many “prudent� Republicans writing.

Roberts’ first article was originally published at David Horowitz’ Web site, Front Page mag: “The Decline of Mainstream Media.� Roberts cites a massive, ten-year-long study by Jeffrey Milyo (University of Missouri, econ) and Tim Groseclose (UCLA, poli sci).

“What common sense has comprehended for decades now finds support by yet another scholarly study: The media has a leftist bias. Jeffrey Milyo, an economist from the University of Missouri, and Tim Groseclose, a political scientist at UCLA, have published their results in the November 2005 issue of the Quarterly Journal of Economics. As if to confirm that bias, over the past few months, the media have given this research scant coverage.�

Milyo and Groseclose, Roberts reports, compared citations of think tanks by the media with citations by members of Congress, and found the media way to the left of Congress. In other words, a Republican think tank was much more likely to be cited by a member of Congress, than by a mainstream newspaper, TV or radio (e.g., NPR) news organization.

Roberts closes,

“These findings bear bad news for conservatives, who still fight an uphill battle to express their views. Thanks to alternative media formats (esp. on the internet) conservaitves have eked out a friendly forum or two, but are absent in the ‘mainstream’ media. Will the Left’s media monopoly ever end? Or should conservatives focus on cultivating alternative media until it is no longer an alternative?�

But things are even worse than Roberts reported, because most alternative “conservative� Web sites and Republican writers do little more than echo GOP talking points (as if that’ll get ‘em any respect!), and like the GOP, are a bunch of pu–ywhipped (as a feminist ex-girlfriend of mine would say) eunuchs who obsessively avoid confronting the worst problems besetting America: Black racism and immigration (legal and illegal). Why is it that the toughest men among conservative columnists are named Michelle and Ann?

      Stix is half-jewish. But he still writes with clarity and honesty, and offers a useful perspective on the reality of life in the multicultural PIT known as NYC. He is so far the only blogger to expose the blatant lies surrounding the Giuliani administration, especially the underreporting of crime. As Manhattan/Downtown Brooklyn was being made safer for tourists, homos, and assorted malcontents, the white middle class that built the city was forced out of neighborhoods in Queens and elsewhere that had always been clean, safe, and orderly. The reason for this ought to be obvious to anyone who has observed third worlders on the subway (John Rocker was right!) Read Stix’s “”Disappearing” Urban Crime(www.vdare.com/misc/stix_urban_crime.htm)” to understand the reality of the situation in NYC. I’m sure it’s just as bad in other cities, but this myth of Giuliani as some kind of miracle-worker has got to be stopped. This myth is promoted by the media non-stop as a means to make diversity look good. New York was a crime-ridden hellhole, they tell us, in the 1970’s, when it was still 60 percent white (including jews) and had significant middle-class neighborhoods. And now it’s a beautiful, shining, happy metropolis, diverse and oh-so-friendly. NO, it’s a seedy, depressing place where most of the people are dumber as a bag of hammers, despite its claims to intellectual excellence.
      I have seen pictures of the subway at 33rd Street and Queens Boulevard in 1985, and there is no graffiti anywhere on the external structure, a huge contrast to today. In some parts of New York, people are simply expected to litter, as there are no trash cans on the main boulevards. Packs of blubber-mouthed Congoids roam the trains, looking to intimidate the passengers. It is obvious from living here that you are simply not in the First World.
      Once again, the story of New York is important because diversity KILLS. One of the first steps towards destroying the myth of diversity is destroying the myth of Giuliani’s “citywide re-birth” and all of the stories of how coloreds “revitalize” communities “given up for dead”.
