A study by the Center for Media and Public Affairs at George Mason University looked at the network news (ABC, NBC, and CBS) and their coverage of the two candidates, beginning after Hillary's concession and continuing to last Monday.
Is there a liberal bias to the media? Not according to this study. Their findings were that the network news said negative things about Obama 72% of the time. In contrast, negative comments were made about McCain only 57% of the time.
It would appear there's a bias against liberals. Not a liberal bias.

Did I like his vote on the FISA bill? No, I did not, and sent his campaign an e-mail saying so. But at least he had to courage to vote and an argument as to why he chose to support it (even if I don't personally find his argument compelling); 'Mr. Security' McCain didn't vote at all on the bill.
