More on Media Bias
Powerline has some good analysis on the Pew research study here.
I particularly liked the comparison of this Pew report with reports from prior to the 2000 elections:
and this:
Powerline comes to about the same conclusions I did--that self-identification as moderate among this group is unreliable-- but adds more depth to the argument.

I particularly liked the comparison of this Pew report with reports from prior to the 2000 elections:
Pew asked, "How much trust and confidence do you have in the wisdom of the American people when it comes to making choices on election day?" Thirty-one percent of national journalists replied "a great deal," compared to 68% who said "a fair amount," "not very much," or "none." Here is what is interesting: as recently as 1999, 52% of journalists said they had a great deal of confidence in the wisdom of American voters. What has caused the press' sudden and precipitous dropoff in confidence in the American public? There is no possible explanation other than the fact that President Bush was elected in 2000, and the Republicans gained in the 2002 Congressional elections. Conservatives who have always suspected that national journalists are mostly elitists who don't trust the voters, and try to shape the news to move readers in a more liberal direction, are right.
and this:
when asked to name "any daily national news organization that you think is especially liberal in its coverage of the news," only 38% answered "yes," while 58% said they couldn't think of a single liberal-leaning news organization! Not the New York Times, not PBS, not the L.A. Times. Keep that in mind when you read that most journalists describe themselves as "moderates."
Powerline comes to about the same conclusions I did--that self-identification as moderate among this group is unreliable-- but adds more depth to the argument.
