Let’s not be too idealistic here. One would hope the media would be fair, but reality is another thing. The New York Times is supposed to be journalism’s crème de la crème. Maybe she once was, but the recent hit piece on John McCain is a clear illustration of the Gray Lady’s coming role in the 2008 Presidential Election.
What role, do you ask? One of making sure a Democrat wins the White House.
Since the “revelation” that officially breaks today, about rumored “special treatment” from Senator McCain to a female lobbyist, what are we no longer talking about? Barack Obama’s supposed plagiarism of Deval Patrick’s speeches? Michelle Obama’s lack of pride in America? Hillary Clinton’s campaign Hindenburg, going down in flames?
Those are, literally, yesterday’s news stories. Those would’ve been today’s hot topics. But now, it’s all eyes front on John McCain.
Don’t get me wrong; I’m not shedding tears for McCain. continued...
