Re: Face it: the media were the biggest losers in 2008
You're taking to a completely unnecessary intellectual level. Mr. Obama won because he is black. It really is that simple. He appealed to those black people who revel in feeling ''unrepresented'' and ''disenfranchised'' by bringing their inabilities, weaknesses, and long-held prejudices to the fore. Before too many of you get apoplectic, let ...

One sided media
I do agree that McCain needs to improve his speaches and focus on how he intends to fix our economy and protect the American People. However, Obama has not stated how his policies will fix our economy. All he states is vote for me and I will do the right thing. But How? Also, I feel that the media, including these polls and opinions, are focused ...

McCain: Call Chicago a Terrorist-loving Haven
Finally! Someone besides Mayor Daley, who last spring issued a statement commending Bill Ayers for his work on behalf of Chicago Public Schools and argued against focusing on a 40 year old past, has spoken out. If McCain wants to damage Obama for serving on the board of the Annenberg Foundation, let him take on the other Board members, too. ...

Obama Buries Atwater
The big news is the growing triumph of Obama-style campaign strategy over the modern Republican ‘slash and burn’ model. ;The voters clearly reject John McCain demonizing Obama. Results from the last two debates, and even last night’s CNN meter poll showed this. The CNN poll spiked up when either candidate talks solutions and trended down at the ...

The Big Bailout...Ha!
There is no need for a bailout of the bank when we can bail them out through tax payer spending...heres how: America has fought hard to become an independent nation and a leader in innovation, so how can we fix our current economic downtrend efficiently? Some seem to think that throwing money at the corporations who failed us is the answer…we all ...

Well, la-de-da! Who's responsible for the 'end of facts.'
But who in the world enables and perpetuates this ‘end of facts.’ The media has to take primary responsibility for the lies, misrepresentations and silliness that has marked this campaign.The media has no obligation to continue running ads that they (and the campaigns) know are untrue, like McCain’s recent one that charges Obama with support of ...

TELL MEDIA TO BOYCOTT ALL MCCAIN EVENTS
I did a youtube video telling everyone to tell the media to BOYCOTT ALL McCain events until Palin starts doing interviews and expressing her views about the American Issues. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8aOsPlwqacA

Demagoguery, that's how!
So what’s hard to believe about ‘intelligent’ people saying dumb things? They’ve gotten away with it the whole campaign. A superficial and vain media enables it. The media has focused unquestioningly on what candidates say about each other rather than what they say on the issues, even covering political ads as major story lines, whether they ...

Media: Look for at Yourself
So, when you say “There has to be a hypocrisy tripwire somewhere.” should that responsibility go to the press? The press has to be accountable.For example, when the nightly news shows begin their campaign coverage on a Monday night with quotes from Wesley Clark saying McCain’s POW experience is not qualification for the job of president – when ...

Is Cindy McCain next?
Speaking of sleaze that's being talked about in the undernews, but hasn't been picked up by the MSM, or even by Kaus, what about the internet gossip that Cindy McCain had an affair with a Maryland divorce lawyer just before John McCain began his presidential run? And what about John's Vicki Iseman thing? Doesn't anyone have pictures? It would ...
