Murdoch: CNN “Always Been Extremely Liberal”

From the mediabistro.com Daily Newsfeed: FishbowlDC editor Patrick Gavin live blogged Rupert Murdoch‘s speech and Q&A at Georgetown University’s Gaston Hall yesterday.

The News Corp. chairman was asked about media bias, and responded with a shot at CNN. “It’s very hard to be neutral. People laugh at us because we call ourselves ‘Fair and Balanced.’ Fact is, CNN, who’s always been extremely liberal, never had a Republican or conservative voice on it,” Murdoch said. “The only difference is that we have equal voices on both sides but that seems to have upset a lot of liberals.”
