It's good to see that at least some of the press corps are a little aware of how biased their viewpoint is.
The press in general has other non-political biases, including biases that people who appear to be living righteous lives are obviously covering something up. They are biased that no thinking person could possibly believe moral behavior is a practical option in both personal and private life. And so forth.
Hi, Dr. Bill.
I don't think it's a bias that "no thinking person could possibly believe moral behavior is a practical option " -- I think it's more that experience has shown that some of those who appear (pretend?) to be leading righteous lives really aren't. Prominent examples that come instantly to mind are Jim Bakker, Jimmy Swaggert, J. Edgar Hoover, Roy Cohn, and former Maryland Congressman Bauman, who was one of the leading "Christian Right" leaders on anti-gay legislation until he was "outed."
