Norm is Right Tilt

You're joking, right? Overthrowing those in power hardly qualifies them as preservers of the status quo.

I guess my experiences living and traveling with the folks from the evil empire just bent my mind right. You obviously have a different tilt.

Simply perception. In reality, Norm uses his shop tilting device, that of course, he got for free. The saw stays fixed, preserving it's 90 degree setting, rotating the shop around.

A guy that is in the pocket of the big lumbering delta porter-cable corporation lean to the left? No way, it is pure capitalism around the NYW.

Well, it may not be a failure yet but the writing on the wall is clear. Actually it was clear from the start that it would ultimately fail. Radio is a tough market and the shows that fail far outweigh the ones that succeed. Going lock stock and barrel with all day left wing programming was indeed a long shot (as any network devoted to any one subject would be).

all this over whether or not Norms saw is left or right tilt...... sad..

... only if the irony in the original post went over your head.

No, I got the original post, apparently mine went over your head however.

Nope, I didn't. One point of taking this stuff this far (without a citation) was to see if anyone would actually make the effort to do any research of their own either to gather information from sources outside their own prejudices or to find the report and falsify it.

I'll see if I can find the original paper. I recall it was a paper published by some journalism school professors in a sociology journal. I will look it up.

I felt insulted myself. But what really got me was the clear rejection of the notion that the actual news reporting could be without a "Liberal bias" even though the authors may have been card carrying members of the ACLU. The real kicker was that no one had anything to offer beyond the Argument from Personal Incredulity.

How about everybody else... I've taken my Prozac for tthe day... actually, I took enough for tomorrow, too.

Oh, yeah, BTW, I am distinctly NOT a liberal.
