Politico Admits Media Bias Against McCain

The Politico admits the bias of the Old Media in this election:  “Why McCain Is Getting Hosed in the Press.”  Their answer:  So What!?

Story here.

OK, let’s just get this over with: Yes, in the closing weeks of this election, John McCain and Sarah Palin are getting hosed in the press, and at Politico.

And, yes, based on a combined 35 years in the news business we’d take an educated guess — nothing so scientific as a Pew study — that Obama will win the votes of probably 80 percent or more of journalists covering the 2008 election. Most political journalists we know are centrists — instinctually skeptical of ideological zealotry — but with at least a mild liberal tilt to their thinking, particularly on social issues.

So what?

The contempt for the American people is too much to be believed.  Let us remember this.
