Just for the heck of it, I posted the following in the Uncommon Descent comment section: "Hey, how about everybody setting aside the Democratic editors this, and the Democratic editors that, and all similar rhetoric? If a majority of newspaper editors ARE liberal (not saying they are, mind you), then it can equally be said that the majority of radio talk show hosts are conservative, as are the majority of newspaper publishers.
