Visual Proof of CNN's Liberal Bias?
First off.... I couldn't care less about a perceived bias in the media. But when I browsed to CNN.com this morning, this kind of caught my eye. On the right is a screen capture from about 9:45 this morning. At 9:53, CNN had changed the image. Anyway, just thought this was funny!

That wall in the photo (or whatever it is) also looks like a large S -- as in SS

Re: Visual Proof of CNN's Liberal Bias?
that is a direct screen capture off of CNN this morning that i took myself. It was down about 5-10 minutes after that. I've worked in Media before, there is NO way that was an accident.

Re: Visual Proof of CNN's Liberal Bias?
I thought it was pretty much understood that cnn was liberally biased, as fox news is conservatively biased...

Re: Visual Proof of CNN's Liberal Bias?
I'm not arguing one way or another. I just thought it was funny to see how openly biased they are. (I agree about Fox, it's almost laughable when you watch their version of "Fair and Balanced") it's one thing to present a Democratic slant, another to select a photo of an acceptance speech that clearly looks like the VP nominee is giving the ol' sig heil.

Re: Visual Proof of CNN's Liberal Bias?
Just to be clear, the picture of Hitler was edited in by the OP, correct? Because honestly, I don't see any big deal with the picture. She's gesturing, not much more than that.
On a side note, every speech Ive seen at a convention (went to bed before Pelin last night, but saw some of Rudy's stumble fest.) every speaker I start imagining Dwight Schrute doing his speech to the paper folks. BLOOD ALONE MOVES THE WHEELS OF HISTORY ::bang bang bang:: ::Shake fist:: (This isn't a Republican vs Democrat thing. I vote for whoever slams the podium the most and waves their fists.
