A Reagan-appointed federal judge gave a fiery dissent on Friday, blasting the left-wing bias in the media and calling for a landmark Supreme Court decision to be overturned.
U.S. Circuit Judge Laurence H. Silberman, dissenting in a libel case before his court, said that the SCOTUS precedent in New York Times v. Sullivan allowed for rampant press "Bias against the Republican Party" and has fostered a media environment of near "One-party control" that posed "a threat to a viable democracy."

Although the bias against the Republican Party-not just controversial individuals-is rather shocking today, this is not new; it is a long-term, secular trend going back at least to the '70s. Two of the three most influential papers, The New York Times and The Washington Post, are virtually Democratic Party broadsheets.
Professor Groseclose showed that media bias is significantly to the left.
While these comments may not seem new to readers, that a sitting federal judge made the argument so stridently in an official dissent is striking.
D.C. Circuit Judge Silberman just released a truly wild dissent calling on the Supreme Court to overturn New York Times v. Sullivan, claiming NYT and WaPo are "Virtually Democratic Party broadsheets," and accusing "Big tech" of censoring conservatives.
It's becoming increasingly difficult to discern fact from fiction, and unfortunately the media has a strong bias. They spin stories to make conservatives look bad and will go to great lengths to avoid reporting on the good that comes from conservative policies. There are a few shining lights in the media landscape-brave conservative outlets that report the truth and offer a different perspective. We must support conservative outlets like this one and ensure that our voices are heard.
