The news media, for the most part, are biased and prejudiced. Neither is there any doubt about the direction of their bias. Whether it be in sociology, science, economics, morals, theology, politics, or whatever, the bias is predominantly toward liberal dogma. This is especially so if the reporting, journalism, commentary, etc., come out of the northeastern cities of New York and Washington, which are dominated by the liberal slant. These folks who ridicule every conservative policy of government and economics and make a laughingstock of Biblical morals and other teachings, ought to be ashamed to claim objectivity in their work.<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Now it can be told why<\/strong> the major TV networks and editors are so biased against us poor ignorant outlanders who still believe in basic moral values and other principles of conservative living. A report has been published of a detailed study on the background of elite television media people. These are the people who decide what we see on TV and what sort of news commentary is given. The study revealed the following:<\/span><\/p>\n Perhaps the most telling revelation of the survey was that 67 percent of those surveyed believed that they should use television to reshape society to conform to their values (all the above statistics from Donald Wildmon in USA Today<\/em>, May 11, 1984.<\/span><\/p>\n While the study just quoted relates only to the television industry, I have no doubt that if the big city daily newspaper and radio moguls of the northeast were polled, their figures would be similar. The degree of their influence is alarming as we observe the moral fiber of our nation growing ever weaker. As the Lord\u2019s people, we must redouble our efforts in the home and in the church to stand for truth and righteousness (Rom. 12:1\u20132).<\/span><\/p>\n [Note:<\/strong> I wrote this article for, and it was published in The Edifier, <\/em>weekly bulletin of Pearl Street Church of Christ, Denton, TX, October 18, 1984, of which I was editor.]<\/span><\/p>\n Attribution:<\/strong> From thescripturecache.com<\/em>; Dub McClish, owner and administrator.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Views: 3[Note: This MS is available in larger font on our Brief Articles 1\u00a0 page.] \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 There is no doubt about it.
