Today shows and the April 23 Nightly News. CBS never touched it. The MRC tapes over 150 hours a week of news and entertainment shows aired on the broadcast networks and cable news channels. With over 160,000 hours on more than 25,000 videotapes, the MRC is the only organization with a complete tape library of network news and entertainment shows back to the late 1980s. Every day teams of MRC analysts enter data from all these stories and shows into a customized computer database, identifying bias in the process.
Analysts also comb daily through the nation's most influential newspapers and news magazines.
The result of the MRC s work is a mountain of evidence to use in combating the undeniable bias. The MRC also provides editors and producers with information on conservative positions, suggesting conservative spokesmen to balance liberal views. To ensure the views of conservatives are disseminated, in 1998 the MRC created the Cybercast News Service. MRC President Brent Bozell writes a weekly newspaper column distributed by the Creator s Syndicate. Op-eds by the MRC staff have recently appeared in the Wall Street Journal, Washington Times, Investor s Business Daily and National Review.
