>>>I wasn't suggesting Glenn Beck is the only biased commentator or that it's worse on one side than the other. Was just bemused that Tracy felt the need to start a thread calling our attention to a column he wrote criticizing Barack Obama. Gosh, what a complete surprise! It's about as newsworthy as starting a thread saying the sun rose in the east this morning.

>>The reason I posted it was not because of his criticism of Obama, but rather the MEDIA. I'm surprised you didn't get that. Especially given our recent discussions on the media's favoritism for him. The typical journalism of a presidential election has turned into a fan club cheering for Obama. No more are newspapers and television affiliates sending one journalist to each camp. They have sent the entire camp to Obama... The journalism aspect alone must concern you whether or not you feel Obama is the best candidate.

>If you truly believe the only reason Obama is getting more attention than his competitors is media bias, well, all I can say is you have a right to that view. The hue and cry about the media pushing Obama forward amuses me, just as it amused me when Hillary complained about him holding huge rallies all the time. Jeez Louise. I mean, if I went on a talk show as a guest along with Angelina Jolie, I wouldn't complain that everyone was looking at Angelina. I don't think Obama needs the media's help to draw attention.

Not at all. The point is equal coverage of the final two top party candidates. This isn't entertainment (although it might as well be), it's journalism during a presidential election.
