They might even show just a smidgen of shock and outrage about some of Obama's long time allies and associates and tell us more about them. But they won't because they don't have a clue about what an actual journalist used to do. They don't know how to write a fact based story, only propaganda. They are nothing more than partisan hacks masquerading as professionals and I am looking forward to massive schadenfreude at each and every misfortune that befalls them. They have earned it and it will only be durning such times that I will pay any attention to them.
Admit to it after its done its damamge and all can be forgiven, right? Its like when the Dems are caught accepting illegal donations. Seek out and accept questionable sources of cash, benefit from the money while they have it (Lookat this! We’re raking in the bucks! You can donate too! Join the cause!), but once it was discovered to be illegal, just return the funds and they can’t be held responsible for their actions.
He doesn’t seem to be all that critical of his own magazine. No surprise of course, that they admit the bias. The damage is done. They cannot help it now.
Too late. The Chancellor has been..."elected".
I disagree. Obama was a part of the problem for four years prior to the "meltdow", two years of which he was in the majority. Obama is not an outsider, and if things lag for the next four years, a true "outsider" in the GOP (a governor like Jindal or Palin, perhaps?) can paint Obama as the utter disastrous insider that he would be at that point. The media could not spin that if the argument was framed properly, and I hope the GOP primary voters understand this in 2012.
Is this their way of welcoming McCain back into their fold?
None of this after the fact admission makes any sense at all.
We certainly did not need to be told that the msm was biased.
May it drop even further. I haven't watched mainstream TV network news other than Fox since Charlie Gibson's disgusting "look down the nose over your glasses" interview with Sarah Palin. And I sent emails saying precisely why to the networks. Yeah, I'm just one guy, but I'm sure I represent thousands of other folks.
Sorry ABCBSMSNBCNN, but I'm gone---PERMANENTLY---from your viewer base. I'll get my news on the web.
Not a freakin’ chance.
Exactly.
As in the case of one Judas Iscariot...the damage is done.
So ... the young Obama voters are already on the Internet and don't get their news from the networks or the mainstream press (NYT, WaPost, Time Newsweak, ...), and the more traditional public like your family and my family are offended and leaving those sources in droves. The result? Karma. I like the sound of that.
That’s ok all you media guys - you’ll be paying for it as dearly as the rest of us. (Maybe more if my own spending habits are any predictor.)
They’re still in the tank right now. I haven’t seen anything from the MSM anywhere about cleaning up their act.
I think the networks’, cable and print news’ post election ratings/numbers are in the toilet. Nobody is watching Wolf or Chris cheerlead for Obambi, the election is over, the deep dark recession or depression is coming, and everyone knows it. It’ll be at least 3 - 4 years before we see any improvement in the economy. When Japan was overwhelmed with deflation it took them 10 years to recover.
Maybe. I think America expects some progress in the next four years or at least the staving off of disaster. I just don't see any progress on the horizon. Bush allowed the Dems to push their socialist agenda to the fullest and now this country is suffering. It will suffer more unless Obama moves to the right and we know that ain't happening.
Hi I’m from the media.
Okay - you caught us. We were in the tank for Obama the whole time.
Sorry next time we’ll get it right *giggle*
Once a whore, always a whore.
What’s disgusting is that they did this without shame, and now a few are admitting it after the fact, as though such admission exonerates them.
Scum.
Just wait until he turns on them. There will be no press conferences unless he hears the questions first. No hard questions and no criticism of him or his people. Just wait until they de-construct the man. As they made him so can they destroy him.

I can hardly wait. They deserve each other. I have to admit it will be fun to watch. I will be doing a little celebration dance on that day.
