Yes it's percentage. If you would pay attention to the top left of the picture in small letters is say's... "Percent of stories with tone" [surprise1]


I still not understanding this statistic. Percent of stories about Romney? I don't think MSNBC spends 71% of all stories on Romney?

In that case, why is this meaningful statistic? You have to normalize to number of stories - in FOX does 1000 stories and MSNBC does 100, percentage comparison is also meaningless.

As you can see I don't think methods of this "study" are any good.

As to comparing MSNBC bias to FOX, I think its better leave this shit-eating connoisseurs, both are yellow media.
