A lot of my fellow conservatives were right in the thick of the Laura Lundquist business on twitter. All night I fought the temptation to join the piling on. In the end I kept silent, because whatever her biases may or may not be, God loves her.
Media bias consists not of individuals’s politics. We all have political leanings, it’s not possible for there to be exceptions, even among reporters. Media bias consists in the fact that almost the only people ever hired by major dailies come out of one particular culture – a culture that by and large believes the only way to hold opposing views is to be an intellectual inferior or to be uneducated.
We need to change that culture, not change one reporter. And the best way to change the culture is to act in such a way that they have no choice but to see us as real human beings, not caricatures.
Love will accomplish that, so I did my best to act with love. Funny how often the best way to love someone is just keep your mouth shut.
