Customer Review: This is really a great read about the "mainstream" media and its slanted reporting of the news. I just finished it and am looking forward to reading more from Mr. Goldberg.

Customer Review: Bernard Goldberg, a (former) longtime CBS reporter, argues that bias in the media is fundamental and pervasive. If what he says is true, you should distrust every nontrivial story from mainstream media. He provides evidence that liberal media have distorted issues on (1) Islam and terrorism,... more info
Customer Review: The conclusions the author draws are ludicrous in most cases. I make a point to listen to both sides, right and left and this guy did a poor job of representing the right. If there needs to be a book with this title, the author completely missed or overlooked those who are actually screwing up... more info
