The following link is an article that delves into the media coverage of this election. It is written by Michael Malone who used to be on PBS and to my knowledge has no ax to grind for or against either side. It makes good reading and confirms what is happening.

The following is a quote from this link that I find interesting and one that folks on this board seem to just ignore...

"If the current polls are correct, we are about to elect as president of the United States a man who is essentially a cipher, who has left almost no paper trail, seems to have few friends (that at least will talk) and has entire years missing out of his biography.

That isn't Sen. Obama's fault: His job is to put his best face forward. No, it is the traditional media's fault, for it alone (unlike the alternative media) has had the resources to cover this story properly, and has systematically refused to do so. "

The media has always been bias towards the Democrats, but this year it has been over the top. They have lost what little credibility they ever had. What I find amusing is how many people complain about FOX, who has many, many Democrats on everyday, but they think it's fine that the MSM hardly ever gives both sides. Go figure.

Actually in this article and others I have read, many liberals are actually embarassed by it !!!

I was, and am, struck by the original author of the article I cited in the start of this thread when he said "we are about to elect as president of the United States a man who is essentially a cipher, who has left almost no paper trail, seems to have few friends (that at least will talk) and has entire years missing out of his biography."

WHO is a friend of Sen Obama ? I mean a real friend...none that I know of !!
