The media deserves every bit of criticism they get in their direction with their horrendous coverage of not only Hillary Clinton's run, but of the primary campaign in general.
Need I remind both of my readers how the media shoved John Edwards, who along with Joe Biden, was the most electable and best of all of our original candidates this year, aside and either talked him down or ignored him. Of course the big donors and the DNC ultimately forced him out so the party could "make history." The other legitimate candidates, Biden, Dodd, and Richardson, were simply ignored or regarded as running for VP or for a cabinet position.
That left Clinton and Obama. But was it really sexism that drove the media's hatred for Hillary? If you look at people like Chris Matthews or Keith Olbermann, sexism was certainly there for all the world to see. But as I always said it was a huge mistake for Hillary Clinton to have run in the first place, given the obvious questions of conflict of interest, I don't think sexism is ultimately what drove the media hatred. It was REVENGE for all things Clinton, just as it was with their hatred for and smear of Al Gore.
If you don't kowtow to the Beltway Slut and her dinner party circuit, forget having the national media in your pocket. Besides, the media are spoken for by the McCain campaign.
