Entertainment Political Bias

From the Chicago Sun Times: A few years ago, “Doonesbury” creator Garry Trudeau read about a group of male, married Democratic lawmakers, including Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., rooming together in a Capitol Hill rowhouse, saving money by living frat-style. Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., is the slob, sleeping on a bed in the living room.
Trudeau found inspiration in their story and used it as the jumping-off point to create his new comedy, “Alpha House,” an Amazon.com streaming video series debuting this month.
Durbin, up for re-election in 2014, won’t have to worry about being portrayed in a political satire. The residents in Trudeau’s “Alpha House” are Republicans.
“It’s just more fun for them to be Republicans,” “Alpha House” executive producer Jonathan Alter told me.
The series is set in the present, and Trudeau decided early on that Republicans were the riper targets to lampoon. Three of the senators — played by John Goodman, Clark Johnson and Matt Malloy — are facing primaries from tea party challengers in 2014 and the fourth, portrayed by Mark Consuelos, is — between trysts — considering a 2016 White House bid. http://www.suntimes.com/24049860-761/sen-dick-durbins-frat-style-dc-home-inspires-alpha-house.html
Nothing like entertainment bias in which real Democrat's real life activities are now being portrayed as Republicans, even though there is no truth for it.
Trudeau always has been a left wing hack and nothing more who's cartoons are less and less popular and relevant.
He used to be funny when he first writing his strip, now, he just is a mental moron who's cartoon strip is neither funny or relevant.
But there will be mental midgets out there who will believe the scenario that the GOP is scum even though, in real life, it is the Democrats who are acting like scum.
