I believe it is now fair to say that the media has a conservative bias

Apparently the years of mindless right wing bickering against the media has bore fruit. When their ideology is beyond incompatible with facts the media ignores it completely. So I guess it is time for us to spread the truth on behalf of their absence because they will never be on our side. The corporations that own the media as well as the government subsidized ones have been intimidated into an unapologetic progressive bash fest.

I mean nobody could have watched them all last night.

I have these:

NBC said it was a draw. David Gregory especially repulsive. But Chuck Todd was right behind him.

BBCA also said it was "a wash" and had a conservative on who was trying to take Biden down.

My local Milwaukee NBC affiliate gave extensive coverage to Ryan's home town reaction and summarized that it was a draw. They did show both repub and dem viewing parties though.
