Most major newspapers are owned by conservative businessmen or
corporations, and the editorial page writers are not for the most part
workaday news writers.


Are you trying to somehow imply that the NYT, WP, LAT, BG, AJ-C et al are
*not* liberally bent papers, simply because they have wealthy corporate
owners or wealthy majority stockholders?



I would posit that most major city newspapers are moderate on their
editorial pages. You're on the far right, and you believe that any
variance from that position makes one a "liberal," but there are many
data points along the path from conservative to liberal.

This is a common misunderstanding among conservatives. Today's
conservatives have moved even farther to the right since Reagan's
presidencies


Baloney. Today's Republican platform is virtually to the left of where the
American Socialist Party was in the 1920's. The Democrat's *current*
platform has virtually moved them left of even Karl Marx.
