Re: Counting papers

I gave it a shot yesterday, Googled "conservative newspapers" and got a lot of hits. On the first page of results alone, following links several steps out, I came up with about a dozen.

But the problem I have, and it's probably why people have hesitated to take your bait, is one of subjective perspective; i.e., the symmetrical problem to:

Also, you would probably have difficulty identifying a paper as liberal (the "fish-can't-tell-it's-wet" theory).

From your perspective way to the right, most of the world looks liberal; and I foresee that you'd dispute a lot of self-identified conservative papers as "not really" conservative. Not far enough to the right to satisfy you. Why else would you claim there are few conservative newspapers when a simple Google search returns so many potential hits? I suspect it's because what you're really saying is "there aren't many papers as conservative as me".

Why don't you try the Google search, and see how many of the results would satisfy your criteria for rightist politically correct?
