The liberal bias of the mainstream media tilts so far left that any outlets not in that political lane, like the Drudge Report and Fox News Channel, look far more conservative than they really are, according to a UCLA professor’s new book out next month.
Thinking Outside The Browser Box: Why Should Apple Play By Current Internet Rules?
I love when tech writers respond to articles by other tech writers. MG Siegler does an amazing job at talking about how Apple is different and how they “[re-imagine] the way things are done.”
When most people think about the Web, they still view it a bit of a wildcard in many ways. There’s a reason Microsoft Windows and Office are still making so much money.
