THE MEDIA ELITE
      Who are the people that control the media? We have a definitive profile given us by the classic Lichter-Rothman report on the "media elite." S. Robert Lichter is a research professor in political science at George Washington University. Stanley Rothman is a professor of government at Smith College. Linda Lichter is co-director (along with Robert Lichter) of the Center for Media and Public Affairs in Washington, D.C. They did an important survey of 104 of the "most influential television writers, producers, and executives," which found   as could be expected   that these were very liberal people. Here is what they found:
          93%"say they seldom or never attend religious services."
          75% "describe themselves as left of center politically, compared to only 14 percent who place themselves to the right of center."
          97% "believe that 'a woman has the right to decide for herself' whether to have an abortion."
          80% "do not regard homosexual relations as wrong."
          Only 5% "agree strongly that homosexuality is wrong, compared to 49 percent who disagree strongly."
          86% "support the rights of homosexuals to teach in public schools."
          51% "do not regard adultery as wrong."
          Only 17% "strongly agree that extramarital affairs are wrong."
This survey shows so clearly why we find an anti-Christian bias in the media. These are non-religious people projecting their own world view on the screen.
