    planet01 - nice quote, but a few paragraphs down form the same source:

    "But what does liberal mean to journalists? We would be reluctant to infer too much here. The survey includes just four questions probing journalists' political attitudes, yet the answers to these questions suggest journalists have in mind something other than a classic big government liberalism and something more along the lines of libertarianism. More journalists said they think it is more important for people to be free to pursue their goals without government interference than it is for government to ensure that no one is in need.

    This libertarian strain is particularly strong among local journalists, who are also more likely to describe themselves as moderate."
