Media Follies

Does anybody want to refute my claim Barack Obama is nothing but a punching bag for the GOP and the result of endless manipulation of the primaries and caucuses? Now we are seeing a major change in attitude, once Obama was made the nominee. The shit-slinging will now begin in EARNEST.

Olbermann is an alleged shill for Obama. Matthews blathered on and on about Obama, although he is truly in the tank for John McCain.

The network certainly didn't care about the "partisan" tone of the coverage during the primaries. It was shit on the other candidates, especially Hillary Clinton, in order to pump up a truly weak candidate for the Democrats.

Olbermann's JOB was to shit all over Hillary Clinton to benefit the network's, the GOP's, and corporate America's ringer, Obama. There was no real principle there on his part. He was PAID to ruin Clinton's chances.

His job is over now, so he doesn't have to analyze anything anymore. Now we will get 24/7 trashing of the Democratic Party ticket by all of the networks and the rest of the traditional media.

It isn't just the regular newscasts, either, which have shifted focus. As this person wrote, the Sunday talk shows are displaying a distinct shift in attitude. It's as if this shift were right on cue. Of course it was and is.

I saw it coming. I wasn't afraid to write about it here.
