AOL Biased by liberals

Is AOL now a biased news com­pa­ny as it is sug­gest­ed by the head­line report­ed below on fox busi­ness new?

Some Adver­tis­ers Are Already Freak­ing Out About AOL’s New “Lib­er­al” Bias

I think the answer to that ques­tion is per­haps not to be found on a web­site or even on AOL but in their quar­ter­ly finan­cial state­ment, which will tell the true tale about how many Amer­i­cans are actu­al­ly left of cen­ter and how many vot­ing Amer­i­cans are right of cen­ter, most of all the polling data solid­ly sug­gests that Amer­i­ca is actu­al­ly cen­ter of right, yet we have so many small mind­ed news com­pa­nies that seem to either not care what every­one wants or they just think they are smarter than any­one else and every­one else is just too dumb to think for them­selves.

Either way it adds up to some­thing that I know a fair num­ber of my friends that have been on AOL for years will soon be up to can­cel­ing their accounts at AOL, sim­ply because they are not left of cen­ter.

All in all the over­ly cin­e­mat­ic, pub­lished post of the Huff and I will Puff Ari­an­na Huff­in­g­ton, seem to show that AOL is will­ing to risk its Adver­tis­ing base to see just how far they can push the enve­lope.

I sus­pect they will find that in the real world mov­ing to the left will not be a wel­comed move for many of its cus­tomers or of its adver­tis­ers, and last but not least its stock hold­ers.

I won­der what Aol is trad­ing at today?
