Shock and Awe! There's Media Bias!
LOCK THE DOORS! COVER THE OZONE! There's bias in the media!! We never would have thought in a million years that such a thing could be true! Catch The Wave!

[...] Just like so many reports before it, a joint survey by the Project for Excellence in Journalism and Harvard's Joan Shorenstein Center on the Press, Politics and Public Policy — hardly a bastion of conservative orthodoxy — found that in covering the current presidential race, the media are sympathetic to Democrats and hostile to Republicans.
Democrats are not only favored in the tone of the coverage. They get more coverage period. This is particularly evident on morning news shows, which "produced almost twice as many stories (51% to 27%) focused on Democratic candidates than on Republicans." [...]
