I'm aware of many of the statistics on how the media staff vote. But this is irrelevant data in attempting to prove the media bias specifically in the reporting. And it is definitely irrelevant to media bias in NPR and PBS specifically.

I'm aware of the statistics, and I've studied them before. What I've seen is that the voting habits of the majority of the national media is liberal. But also what I've seen is that there is little to no evidence leading us to believe that these beliefs affect how they report the news. Any liberal undertones in CNN and public broadcasting are very settle, and are way more than offset by the obvious conservative bias of the vast majority of talk radio and of Fox News.

That's what I've seen, but you've obviously proclaimed to have conclusive evidence otherwise. I still have yet to see it.

Now... come back again and tell me how unbiased NPR/PBS is.
