More admissions of election coverage bias from media…
Now that the elections is over, more “journalists” (including a Time editor and Washington Post ombudsman) are admitting and bemoaning the bias of the media toward Barack Obama.
Last week, Time magazine’s Mark Halperin called the media’s performance during the campaign simply “disgusting.”
Halperin told a panel of media analysts at the Politico/USC conference on the 2008 election, “It’s the most disgusting failure of people in our business since the Iraq war.”
He added, “It was extreme bias, extreme pro-Obama coverage.”
Of course it is safe for them to admit it now. And maybe they think that “coming clean” will restore the trust of the American people. Don’t worry, all of you media elite, the “people” never doubted you, nor will they. The “people” are far beyond any ability to question you. You and the public school system made sure of that long ago.
