On CBS, Laura Bush Calls Out Media for Liberal Bias
During an interview with former President George W. Bush and Laura Bush on CBS’s Sunday Morning, correspondent Jim Axelrod wondered: “In terms of how you understand how you are perceived is there a liberal bias in the media?” Mrs. Bush quickly replied: “Yes. He doesn’t have to answer, but I will.”
Axelrod seemed surprised by her response: “Why do you jump in so quickly?” Mrs. Bush laughed and backed off slightly: “No, I’m only kidding. I really don’t know.” However, she observed: “I will say that I really do see for most Americans a great feeling of affection for George that you don’t read about. Yes, I think there’s sort a conventional wisdom that’s put out by the press.” Axelrod was still skeptical: “And that conventional wisdom tilts left?” Mrs. Bush replied: “Yes.”
Tilts left? More like – hang on before you fall off the face of the Earth, left.
