The American Thinker - Liberal Bubble

The American Thinker

An insightful piece on the liberal mindset and a prediction for their continued demise.

While the liberal viewpoint is dominant in the media, these media are losing ground in the digital age for four reasons: they are being overtaken by the Internet as a distribution, advertising and communications medium which threatens their business model; by the fact that fewer reader and viewer hours are spent on their news and analysis which renders their viewpoints less effective; the conservative alternatives on TV, radio and the Internet are more persuasive; and, in the case of The New York Times and CBS, they are shown to be rigging the news dishonestly.

The liberal academic bastion is still strong, but unlikely to remain insulated from conservative views forever. Eventually, a liberal education will revert to its true meaning rather than the left-wing bias that is so often passes for 'liberal education.'
