MRC's Bozell Criticizes the Liberal Media's Treatment of Ted Cruz

March 25th, 2015 3:27 PM

"Ted Cruz frightens left-wingers, because he doesn't compromise, because he doesn't play games," Media Research Center founder and president Brent Bozell told Fox Business Network's Stuart Varney on a March 25 segment on his eponymous Varney & Co. program.

"This is exactly what they did to Ronald Reagan," Bozell added. "They're going to try to take him out." 

Surely if "Ted Cruz is so conservative," by contrast President Obama was "the single most liberal candidate in the history of the Republic" and the most liberal member of the Senate in 2008. Yet, Bozell reminded Varney, he was labeled a "liberal" but once by CBS during "the entire 2008 presidential campaign." NBC and ABC failed to describe Obama as politically liberal.

By contrast, we're just three days into Cruz's official run for the presidency and the liberal media have "called [him] everything but a Nazi," Bozell noted.
