Has anyone seen Obama interviewed live on CNN recently?
I'm just curious...I normally don't watch CNN at all, but lately of course it's hard to ignore news sources, wherever they are. I have it on in the morning while getting ready for work because I can't stand MSNBC's morning format, and I've personally seen McCain live there twice in the past month; and this AM they announced both McCain and Palin would be live at different times today. So is Obama getting anything like this kind of exposure through them, or not? It seems a tad one-sided. I imagine this is why I stopped watching CNN in the first place.

1. the Obama campaign oughta make it fairly clear that...
media and media pundits showing overt bias in coverage towards Mccain will not have ideal access in the future, should he be elected.

2. agreed
Aside from this rather glaring problem, I think what I've seen has been pretty even-handed. It seems weird that CNN would tilt like that on the live interviews but in no other area (that I've seen, anyway).

3. CNN gets a little more pro McCain
with each passing day.

I figure they should eclipse Fox News sometime before election day.

4. MSNBC and CNN are both showing alot more McCain engagements
than Obama Biden ones. And it will be worse Thursday and Friday with Obama off the trail. I hope Biden has alot of campaign stops to make over the next two days.
