Research Center
- "As "America's Media Watchdog," the MRC seeks to
bring balance to the news media. Leaders of America's
conservative movement have long believed that within the
national news media a strident liberal bias existed that
influenced the public's understanding of critical issues.
On October 1, 1987, a group of young determined
conservatives set out to not only prove -- through sound
scientific research -- that liberal bias in the media
does exist and undermines traditional American values,
but also to neutralize its impact on the American
political scene. What they launched that fall is the now
acclaimed -- Media Research Center (MRC)."
