By Nearly 8-1, Voters Say Journalists Want Obama to Win

“Voters overwhelmingly believe that the media wants Barack Obama to win the presidential election,” a Pew Research Center for the People and the Press survey released Wednesday discovered. Specifically: “By a margin of 70%-9%, Americans say most journalists want to see Obama, not John McCain, win on Nov. 4. Another 8% say journalists don't favor either candidate, and 13% say they don't know which candidate most reporters support.”

The question (PDF of questionnaire): “Who do you think most newspaper reporters and TV journalists want to see win the presidential election -- Barack Obama or John McCain?” Unsurprisingly, 90 percent of Republicans recognized how journalists hope Obama is victorious, yet so do 62 percent of Democrats and independents.

Someone needs to find that 1 person & throw a net over ‘em.

I pray we get to see a total media meltdown on election night when they realize O won’t be President.

Pretty amazing 70 to 9 in a very left leaning poll.

Guess that kinda makes it less of a right-wing delusion and more just the reality of the situation. And the reality is brutal.

I think we will.

[soupcon]

Scott McClellan just endorsed Obama.

And still nearly half the voters will still vote FOR the media's candidate. Go figure!

In 94 the MSM called the election a “temper tantrum.” I wonder what they’ll say when the ONE goes down in flames?

[nascent skeptic]

Hillary supporters have not forgotten evidently.

Interesting that we've not heard the rhetoric of 2006 where the RATS
bolstered about taking the House and Senate before the election.
Hmmm.

"Scott McClellan just endorsed Obama."

So he's still looking for a new job?

Mighty nice of the Fox in sheeps clothing to contribute to the Fraud and nothing to McCain.

[TribalPrincess2U]

Ha, we need a poll to know that.

By at least an 8:1 margin ... today’s ‘journalist” is a moron
