The difference is that liberals deny that the mainstream news has any
bias. Conservatives, rather than deny it, acknowledge it, and offer
their counter perspective to provide balance.

You should try to avoid repeating "talking points", they demean your argument.

Many of your right wing news outlets *are* the mainstream media. Check the
ratings.
Did you know that there are entire communities in the US where every local
radio station, as well as the local newspaper, are owned by Clear Channel?

Excusing the blatant spin and emotionally
charged propaganda with "we're the little underdogs and we need to rely on
these techniques to get our message noticed in the face of the onslaught from
the mainstream media", is preposterous.
