Melber: "Media doesn't love obama after all" Are you readng Bill?
Edited on Tue Jun-03-08 03:58 AM by 4themind
"Barack Obama has not received better media coverage than Hillary Clinton, according to a new study by the research team at Pew/Harvard, the gold standard in nonpartisan media analysis. After reviewing coverage from January to March, when the majority of states voted, researchers determined that Obama simply did not fare better than Clinton. In fact, reporters "began to turn against Obama before questions surfaced about his pastor Jeremiah Wright," the study found. And Clinton's "Saturday Night Live" gambit - when she chided the moderators of a February debate, "maybe we should ask Barack if he's comfortable and needs another pillow" - apparently worked:"

So while I understand Bill's concern due to the attack that his wife is on the receiving end (which husband wouldn't be angry). His view of the broader picture may be somewhat skewed. He may want to consider reviewing THIS statistical analysis, and perhaps provide his own to refute these claims if he wants to press this.
