A myth invented in conservative think-tanks as part of an all-encompassing effort to co-opt and/or corrupt all of the best ideas of a socially responsible, free country: In this case specifically, the existence of a free and curious media that functions independently from the government (but see also: affirmative action, feminism, social security, constitutional protection, judicial restraint, environmentalism, and social liberalism in general).
"Thank God we have Bill O'Reilly and Fox News to tell us the news as President Bush would have us know it -- before it gets filtered through the liberal bias for that pesky 'truth' the mainstream media is always harping on.

An individual who attempts to seem more progressive-than-thou by advocating for popular issues-of-the-month without creating any real or lasting change for those they are supposedly advocating for. These people can be identified by a combination of factors including upper-middle class income, Che Guevara T-shirts, peace sign bumper stickers being placed next to their Free Mumia and Obama '08 stickers on the back of their Honda Civic, and a medley of other products created by the terrible capitalist market they vow never to support.

n. someone who expresses constant online outrage in support of various progressive causes but provides no genuine, substantive advocacy

The term classical liberalism has often been applied in retrospect to distinguish earlier 19th-century liberalism from social liberalism.
Social-liberals have nothing in common with 19th century liberalism. They took this word,that's why we have to call ourselves classic liberal .
