The ‘Liberal Leaning’ Media Has Passed Its Tipping Point

 

America won’t reunite until far more people can look at a news story in print or on the screen and, of all things, believe it.

A return to balance would be commercially unviable. The best solution may be an honest embrace of bias. separation

About 35 years ago I was sitting at lunch next to Jeane Kirkpatrick, a onetime Democrat who became a foreign-policy adviser to President Reagan and later U.S. ambassador to the United Nations. She was lamenting what she called the “liberal leaning” media. As the president of CBS News, I assured her it was only a “liberal tilt” and could be corrected.

“You don’t understand,“ she scolded. “It’s too late.”
