Media Bias (a poem)
The dues must be paid
Or prestige will fade
It's an elite club
And members can snub
They all report news
But give many clues
That neutral they're not
And bias they've got
Freeze out is their fate
If Bush they don't hate
The family tree
Seen on NBC
All know how to spin
So Democrats win
Same at CBS
But none will confess
That they slant the news
To push their own views
Do they know we're able
To fact check on cable
Or prestige will fade
It's an elite club
And members can snub
They all report news
But give many clues
That neutral they're not
And bias they've got
Freeze out is their fate
If Bush they don't hate
The family tree
Seen on NBC
All know how to spin
So Democrats win
Same at CBS
But none will confess
That they slant the news
To push their own views
Do they know we're able
To fact check on cable
