According to The Huffington Post, not exactly a hotbed of conservatism, NBC employees (and NBC sub-units, including CNBC and Telemundo), gave $31,251 to presidential candidates in what Huffpo calls "Fundrace 2008." Of that campaign cash, $31,000 went to Democratic presidential hopefuls, and $251 went to Republicans.
That's 99.2 percent for the Dems.
Is it possible that such a 100:1 skew in political donations will signify bias NBC's political coverage, this year and next?
Aside, of course, from the enormous--and unquantifiable--in-kind political contributions made to the Dems by Chris Matthews, Keith Olbermann, David Shuster, Dan Abrams, and the rest of the gang at "MSDNC."
