RE: An Actual Knock at the Door?

Comment comment by PowerPointSamurai on 24 May 2006

I'll forgive your ignorance here, Starm, because evidently you didn't know that Fox is demonstrably slightly left of center, as demonstrated by Jeffrey Miliyo, an economist and public policy scholar. Meanwhile public TV and radio are actually more conservative. Do we need to go back to Political Compass to shed this baseless and damaging baggage of falsely labeling each other? I also think most people's stated political leanings absolutely hilarious after listening to what they think about issues for a few minutes.

I also thought it was extremely entertaining watching the Slashdot crowd fall over themselves to label those blogs as "hate speach", or that this isn't censorship because it's not a government agency doing it, while those same people have banged on endlessly about government wiretapping or any kind of perceived "censorship" of their pet sites, or wailed and gnashed their teeth about how country fans "censored" the Dixie Chicks. In short, the hypocracy in that forum is staggering, even for Slashdot.

RE: An Actual Knock at the Door? by starm_ :: NR0

Okay that study is complete liquid crap, you can find rebuttles on the Language Log blog, look for the ones about how they introduced a bias by multiplying probabilies with the ADA score.

anyways, just to try to introduce some reality in here and show everyone that liberals aren't the anti-war zealots you've been brainwashed they are, read the comments of this dKos post
