Talk:Elite media

Elite
for a use of "elite" that characterizes distribution of wealth and power in the US, see power elite. tho, I see why some say the average US media source is kinda liberal-leaning. Kɔffee Drinker McIzzl 03:52, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

I am not persuaded that this is an accurate definition. A more common definition of this term in political science and journalism is "the media whose output is most often consumed by key policy makers, often known as elites--see power elite (per the prior entry.). A much more complete entry is needed here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 152.1.96.138 (talk) 15:13, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

Media elitism
The page refers to the pejorative sense but does not explain it -- I believe that like Liberal elite, in the United States the phrase "elite media" seems more commonly complimentary and "media elite" seems more typically the pejorative.
