If you don't care about a publications bias, does that make you a conservative?

Recently ask about a periodical that presented all war dead Americans as casualties, ones from other countries as slaughtered. Never mentioned the words liberal or conservative but was accused of being a liberal for asking the question. I can think of a lot of reasons to be called liberal, probably a similar number for being referred to as a conservative, but didn't realize question bias fell into either group. So, am I a liberal for asking the question?
