Anybody can be biased. Even the people that made up your little chart.

Yeah, it's so convenience for you. The great conspiracy against those poor conservatives. The reason you make methodology is to limit personal bias. But you don't care, your are happy in your bubble. You are looking forward to another high speed article about some college students who signed a petition about removing some trigger word from a college campus you never heard of.
The great conspiracy against those poor conservatives.

Non Cheetos Jesus, if you aren't going to bother to read you own articles, stop posting them. Lazy, google article spammer...
The exhaustive report, which examined nine years worth of applications for tax-exempt status, comes after a similar audit in 2013 found that groups with conservative names like “Tea Party,” “patriot” or “9/12” were unfairly targeted for further review.
The new report found that the I.R.S. was also inappropriately targeting progressive-leaning groups. While the investigation does not specify the political affiliations of the groups, names that were flagged included the words “Progressive,” “Occupy,” “Green Energy,” and Acorn — the acronym for the now defunct Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now.

Old you read far right bias "news" sources. Everything I read/watch in closer to center, because I'm don't care for propaganda. You love right wing propaganda, because it re-enforces your opinions. You making excuses that your extreme right wing bias "news" sources are comparable to reliable/reputable news is laughable. One try to be unbiased, while the other's existing is base on being bias. Thanks you to people like you the extreme ring wing nuts jobs sites are doing great.
I try to stay in the green, but I will read so stuff from the yellow. You think the red news source are just as good as the green, they just cover the stories "different". No they used loaded words, sketch the truth or break it, pass opinion off as facts. So to you the Enquirer is just as good as New York Times.These ratings aren't opinions they are base of methodology. Again if you really care about the facts over opinions you would do your own research. But you just keep repeating your Fox News talking points like the sheep you are.
Excellent a blast from the past.
With CNN and time being relatively centered here I have to call bullshit on the whole thing.

Not to mention calling Fox news hyper partisan right. I haven't seen any evidence that they are hyper partisan right.

The actual news broadcast isn't very bias, they still have actual journalist with some integrity. Fox and Friends, Lori, Hannity compete to see who can suck CJ's dick the longest.

The rest of the story: there was some inappropriate targeting of the left by the IRS but how did it compare to the targeting of conservatives? who bore the brunt of the targeting? Wasn't any targeting of the left minor in comparison with the targeting of conservative groups? Why did the IRS apologize for the excessive scrutiny of conservatives?

The rest of the story from some extreme ring wing "news" source or just your opinion? Do have any numbers to show? Total number of right and left wings groups and compare that # to the how many were targeted? I know these details aren't important to you, but it helps understanding situation instead of just yelling PERSECUTION!!!

yes, there is a lot more to the story than stupidass limp-wristed "gotchas" to the contrary of any point made.
IN other words, given the emails hard core anti-conservative bias, it doesn't matter that their algorithm also rang up some liberal groups. It matters that they went after opposition party groups, conservative groups, for screwing with them, rendering them unable to effectively function.

ignorant asswhole.
look at the graph on page two.
"On July 30, 2014, the House Committee on Ways and Means published a study detailing the number of questions posed to conservative and progressive applicants for tax-exempt status.1068 The IRS asked conservative groups 1552 questions, an average of 14.9 questions per group. Meanwhile, the 7 progressive groups were asked a mere 33 questions in total, or 4.7 per group.1069 Conservative groups were asked on average more than triple the number of questions posed to progressive organizations"

from page one, *first visual page of link address*
"The Majority report asserts that there was no political bias in the way the IRS selected groups for additional scrutiny and that conservative and liberal groups were treated equally. This is simply untrue. The IRS screening resulted in a clearly disparate impact on conservative group applications. Of the groups applying for tax-exempt status that were pulled from normal processing and received additional scrutiny by the IRS, 83% (or 248 out of 298) of the groups were “right leaning” organizations."

Here's the graph on that second page:

Scandal: A congressional panel has released new emails from top IRS official Lois Lerner, revealing a boiling hatred for the conservatives she illegally targeted. So much for claims that she was just a disinterested bureaucrat.
The latest batch of emails released Wednesday by the House Ways and Means Committee contained more than a "smidgeon" of hatred and intolerance from the IRS chief of tax-exempt organizations already famous for singling out conservative Tea Party groups for enforcement scrutiny.
"Great," Lerner wrote to an IRS colleague who complained about conservative radio at work. "Maybe we are through if there are that many assholes."
After that, sounding more like a far-left ranter, Lerner likened Republicans to "teRrorists" (sic), while her colleague railed about "the whacko wing of the GOP."
The House committee said that the IRS tried to redact these comments but failed. But it's what you'd expect to find, given the IRS' effort to obstruct Congress by destroying the hard drives of officials under inquiry.
"This email shows that Ms. Lerner's mistreatment of conservative groups was driven by her personal hostility toward conservatives," wrote Ways and Means Chairman Dave Camp to Attorney General Eric Holder.
It also gives the lie to early administration claims that the IRS' targeting of political dissidents was nothing but bumbling bureaucrats in Cincinnati, and later, merely the "management problems" of a large agency.
President Obama finally dismissed the issue as a brouhaha with "not a smidgeon of corruption." The hard drives of the bureaucrats were mysteriously destroyed.
In fact these emails, small and trivial as they are in chattering content, are indicative of the politicization of government under the Obama administration, the morphing of supposedly impartial executive-branch agencies with all their powers into the enforcement arm of the Democratic Party and its agenda.
Nasty in content, they effectively end the long-standing credibility of government agencies as institutions of probity run by impartial civil servants, in place since the 1883 civil service reforms that ended the spoils system.
"Lois Lerner's exposed emails show the world she was and is a political hack driven by her own partisan agenda rather than a neutral public servant," said Americans for Tax Reform President Grover Norquist.
In light of these emails, it's impossible that any taxpayer can trust our government's claims that it's merely impartially enforcing the law. Not only is it not enforcing the law, it's also breaking it

Well congrats, calf you finally found a real source. Well sort of anyways. It was the GOP's report, but at least it had some facts in it. I knew you could do it. btw we still don't know the total of groups that apply for non-profits status, the GOP's report didn't list it. But using keywords to flag groups for audits is pretty stupid/lazy. I'm sure you don't understand, so let me explain it to you. If 50 new non-profit were created with "Patriot" in the name and 3 were created with "Progressive" then a lot more right-leaning groups are going to be flagged.

sick sidestep of admitting you just got your stupid ass kicked.

Yes, because one incident of possible targeting means the conspiracy is real!!
Tea party groups get revenge against IRS as judge approves $3.5 million payout
A judge late Wednesday signed off on the settlement between the IRS and hundreds of tea party groups, closing out the last major legal battle over what all sides now agree was unwarranted and illegal targeting for political purposes.
