I've seen Pravda listed as impartial news source on several occasions so none of this surprises me. Pravda is, by the way, the official paper of the Communist party and founded by Lenin; It rarely tries to hide its bias and past. The continual drop in circulation does not surprise me at all. Many media outlets seem to forget that (at least in PA) 50% of the population can't vote in the Democratic Primary, and therefore, don't care what Hillery or Obamba say at this point.
I will say that studies, including the Harvard one linked above, are very limited in scope. The talk radio references are an example. Rudi is the apparent front runner for the GOP nomination. He gets ripped all of the time on his social record as mayor of NYC - which is to be expected, considering talk radios conservative bias. I think that is important to point out that, in my opinion, talk radio is conservative because most of the media is so liberal. It is reasonable to assume that if the major news outlets were not so biased their would be the void that talk radio, and to a lesser extent Fox News, fill. Air America fail because it was redundant: People already had what they offered in damn near ever TV show, newspaper and NPR.
Bernstein has a point here too.

Things like this make me fell less regretful about not going to college, though they have appeared to back tracked. This is pure Bolshevism if I have ever seen it. I though that institutions of higher learning were places of free thought and free speech; I guess I was wrong.

I thought that we were doing this already, but then aren't we supposed to not do things unilaterally? I'm confused...
