Are you ashamed of the biased presidential coverage?

    Yes.

    Like you're surprised I'd say that.

    " . . . wholly-offensive . . . "

    I'll agree that other portions of NW are at least partially offensive, to those right of center.

    But at least they're not running Michelle-ordering-caviar-from-room-service fantasies out of whole cloth.

    RS is a good example. Mags like Rolling Stone and shows like Daily Show will engage in the "Democrats good, Republicans bad" theme and tilt their coverage toward it, just like National Review will often go the other direction. It depends on the outlet you're reading or watching. You know Fox News will trash the Dems, much like MSNBC goes the other way.

    On the second thing Guy pointed out, what he said. When you get mainstream pubs letting bias of any kind show through, that's where the problem lies.
