America hates the media: 55% say media bias bigger problem in politics than big contributions

There were times in the last 15 months when we thought we’d never succeed in our mad dream of convincing America that the media is a worthy object of their hate. Then we saw this research from Rasmussen and realized that all is right with the world.

Dan Rather media bias It’s been a long, arduous journey for IHateTheMedia.com. There were times in the last 15 months when we thought we’d never succeed in our mad dream of convincing America that the media is a worthy object of their hate.

Then we saw this research from Rasmussen and realized that all is right with the world:

Voters agree that big money talks in politics but apparently not as loudly as big media.

Fifty-five percent (55%) of U.S. voters continue to think that media bias is a bigger problem in politics today than big campaign contributions, identical to the finding in August 2008.

Thirty-two percent (32%) say big contributions are the bigger problem, but that’s down four points from the previous survey. Thirteen percent (13%) more are not sure.

…Sixty-eight percent (68%) of Republicans and 62% of unaffiliated voters say media bias is the bigger problem in politics, a view shared by just 37% of Democrats. The plurality (46%) of Democrats says campaign contributions are a bigger problem.

Sixty-five percent (65%) of Mainstream voters and 54% of the Political Class agree that the bigger problem facing politics is media bias.

55% of America hates the media. Which is only fair, we suppose, since the media seems to hate America.
