Setting aside guns, why is taking 1 side ipso facto evidence of bias? MT @ByronYork
Journalists rush to take sides in gun debate. One side.
@noamscheiber Sorry--running out now, so can't talk. But article is about gun debate, so can't set aside guns in this case...

@ByronYork Fair enough. But theoretically they could all take the same side and all be right... -
@noamscheiber@ByronYork It's not theoretical. They take the same side all the time, and I'm sure you think they're usually right. -
@jpodhoretz@ByronYork Certainly instances of them being right. Like when they almost all predicted Romney would lose... -
@noamscheiber@ByronYork Ah, so political prognostication is a side now! -
@jpodhoretz aggregating polls is an empirical exercise. Your side insisted it was biased. Turned out to be bang on... -
@noamscheiber nice deflection. Not the same as a fight over ideas, which I assume you do actually know. -
@jpodhoretz pt is that if u guys scream bias just bc most journos on 1 side, even when something easily verified, hopeless when its hazier. -
@noamscheiber point is, you guys vote 90 percent the same way. - 1 more reply
