Many in the media ignored Obama’s past and his views because of their blind hate of our previous president.[/quote]
I mean, can you really blame the media for running away from our previous president…?
I firmly believe Obama was elected ONLY because of Bush. If Bush didn’t exist, USA wouldn’t have selected a man sharing Arican/Black/African-American heritage as the POTUS. Not for another 2 or 3 decades.[/quote]
If you believe as I do that the role of the 4th estate is to inform folks, yes, I do blame the media for not informing folks as best they could about someone running for president. The obligation to inform and present unbiased info should have nothing to do with how one feels about either party or administration.[/quote]
What’s your view on FOX and Limbaugh etc.[/quote]
I don’t listen to Limbaugh but like anyone else he should be entitled to his opinion.
As far as Fox News goes, I wonder where we would be without them. Just recently they were the only ones exposing Acorn and Van Jones. In fact, when a news anchor from another network was asked he said he had no idea about these stories. That’s just mind boggling.
So I’m left to think that if you don’t include watching Fox News among others you won’t know what is happening. It also makes me wonder about the motivation to cover certain stories by other outlets.
