I understand. And my point was simply that while watching wrestling is fun, it's difficult to take someone seriously who brings WWE moves and ideas to a street fight. Especially when everyone is working for Vince McMahon.
Don't worry, I got plenty of other clumsy metaphors. lol.
All that article shows is that there are liberals behind-the-scenes and producing many shows. Not much examples of it being shown on screen except something said on the Golden Girls (like 30 years ago?) and a Sesame Street character saying Pox news is trash. And something about a gay wedding on Friends. A gay wedding isn't exactly a stab at conservatives. It's a sign of the modern times.

And there was a CSI episode trashing the tea party, it had Justin Beiber in it I believe. I know you hate the tea party, but it is what it is, nothing surprising.

"Alessandra Stanley of The New York Times wrote on Sept. 24 that Bieber played a domestic terrorist with Tea Party leanings. Even though the episode made no direct reference to the Tea Party, the right-wing protest depicted resembled a Tea Party protest, at least according to some viewers who have commented on FreeRepublic.com, a conservative blog. Breitbart said the Tea Party movement has consistently proven left-wing claims wrong and that Tea Partiers have found alternative media outlets to fight back against what they see as their inaccurate portrayal in the traditional mainstream media. Breitbart further added that he wouldnt be surprised if Hollywood continues to add what he sees as subliminal propagandist messages to their productions.
This is the reason so many people dont watch these shows anymore, Breitbart said."
Fling, fling. You'll know the path to truth when you smell shit. I do agree, there is quite a bit of propaganda. But labeling it left or right is being drawn into exercises in futility.
Jabs are gonna be made left and right. Much more the right, because liberals don't have much to be ashamed of or topic to be scared of. We're more open minded and live in modern times. Meanwhile conservatives are in an uproar about recent Madonna and Jlo music videos. Grow up.

Damn. For a split second, I had hope.
The left makes the most noise. Conservatives dominate talk radio, but the left dominates television, that's a fact. That isn't a "jab" either.
