Brent Bozell is spot-on in pointing out that one would naturally think that the largest legal action in American history in defense of religious liberty would be a major news story. Yet ABC, CBS and NBC obviously don''t judge news events by their inherent importance as relates to the future of our freedoms. It's very clear that they deliver the news according to a simple formula: Does it or doesn't it advance the re-election of Barack Obama? And if it doesn't, it isn't news.

On May 21, 43 Catholic dioceses and organizations sued the Obama administration over its ridiculously narrow idea of how a "religious institution" can be defined under the Obamacare law. Never has the Catholic Church -- or any order, for that matter -- undertaken something of this magnitude. It's truly jaw-dropping that ABC and NBC completely ignored this action on their evening newscasts, while "CBS Evening News" devoted just 19 seconds to this historic event.

t: They spiked the news.Much more here.

Little wonder that the networks are thought of by a majority of Americans as having a strong liberal bias and essentially a communication (and talking point) arm of the Democrat Party.
