[QUOTE="O'Rothlain, post: 87598"] New York itself lends itself to the left (in American terms Democratic) as does the whole of New England. The Times present a more left-minded view. In America the view is that the left are educated, sensible, business people. Whereas the right are uneducated, biased, working class folk. I can't say that it doesn't carry some validity to it, just look at the rights leader: George W. Bush. They've now broken everything into "red" and "blue" states (read this article: [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_state_vs._blue_state_divide"]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_state_vs._blue_state_divide[/url]). The two parties have sort of evolve to embody what the other was a hundred years ago...interesting fact. I don't read the times much myself...I find it a bit to presumptuous (by that I mean they feel that both they and their reader are ultra-smart). I read and watch FOX, CNN and the BBC. I figure if I hear the story presented from three sources I can usually figure out the real truth or at least make a genuine educated opinion. As far as Alec Baldwin goes...he's my favorite Hollywood liberal. I don't agree with him, but I sure do like him. He's staring in a new sitcom on NBC called [url="http://www.imdb.com/***le/tt0496424/"]30 Rock[/url] written by and starring [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0275486/"]Tina Fey[/url] (head writer for SNL, writer of Mean Girls staring Lindsey Lohan) and [url="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0605079/"]Tracy Morgan[/url] (SNL).
