Politics according to the Bible, ch. 16

Grudem addresses the issue of media bias in this chapter. Pointing to statistics and actual cases for the political agenda of the media, Grudem asks 'what happens when the watch dogs fall asleep?' Valid question, I think. I was amazed that the sluggishness of media to report the unethical choices of liberal politicians while quickly pointing out unsubstantiated missteps of conservative voices. The agenda around global warming has been close to my heart because of the time, energy and resources poured into that theory. I appreciate how Grudem ends this chapter with the following verse: "His watchment are blind; they are all without knowledge; they are all silent dogs' they cannot bark, dreaming, lying down, loving to slumber (Isa. 56:10)."
