April Results

There were 21 OP-EDs from liberal writers in April and 6 articles from conservative writers. This give us approximately 78% liberal writers and only 22% conservative writers.

The average ranking of (how biased) the liberal writers were was 2.7 (89%) out of 3 and the average liberal article received a 2 (67%) out of 3.

The average ranking of (how biased) the conservative writers was 1.5 (50%) of 3 and the average conservative article received a 1.3 (44%) out of 3.

There was only 1 article for the month that had a cross-over article. Suprisingly it was from a liberal writer.

I didn't bother to rate the cartoons as they were so biased to the left that there was nothing redeeming in them.

Clearly there is a bias in not only who is posted but also how on biased their article. Conservative writers were not only published less often but were less biased and their articles were less biased. This would put the IR at over 80% biased to the liberal side (In my opinion).
