Apparently 99% of American journalists are for Obama, up from 95% for Kerry. This makes us liberals a little uncomfortable. Because the media, after all, is a public good, and it should be fair.
But deep down, this makes us a little smug, too. It reinforces our self perception that we are more enlightened.
I don't know if this is anywhere more exemplified than on NPR, or the BBC. You tune in, and it feels liberal. Thoughtful. Global.
There isn't any of the nationalistic, NASCAR, over-the-top statements you get on Limbaugh.
