You gotta love it every time “liberal media bias” plays itself out right in front of your eyes. On debate night, CNN’s Soledad O’Brien had a group of voters that were supposedly evenly divided between Republicans and Democrats, plus a group of undecided voters.

She asked: “How many thought Joe Biden won the debate tonight?”

12 people shown on camera raised their hands. (See this post for a visual. Note there are 13 circles, but if you look carefully, the one of the far left is actually someone’s head… confirmed when he raises his hand later for Palin.)

And then said: “So, looks overwhelming.”

She then asked who thought Palin won.

11 people shown on camera raised their hands.

She said: “So, small hands.”

That’s it. Biden wins “by a significant margin” and we move on.

Check out the actual video of it, and shake your head in disgust.

    You fail to factor in the possibility that since she’s a talking head on CNN it might be both at the same time!

    I have a third alternative.

    Most “anchors” are pretty faces with empty heads who just read the teleprompter.
