This, at its heart, is an insight into the rationale for the constant cries of "liberal media bias." If the public doesn't agree or care, its the media's fault. If the media doesn't report things in a way that favors conservatives, regardless of whether the conservative position is or is not supportable with facts or evidence or if the facts the conservatives happen to be obsessing over are even relevant, it is proof that there is a bias against conservatives. It is an intellectual short-cut: to attack this easy target. It is also based on arrogance. If no one cares about some irrelelvant factoid but you, it must be everyone else's fault and couldn't possibly be because they're in on something you are not: the irrelevance of the factoid.
