MEDIA got Punked!

Many people who think that Barack Obama is the great Uniter should take a look at Hillary. Why? Well, in the last week, she managed to reach across the aisle, and unite Repulican commentators, rebulican strategists, George Bush, John McCain and her campaign to help her lift and throw the kitchen sink at Obama. Even more, while running an extemely negative campaign (at least by democratic standards) she managed to get the media to work day and night for her too while thinking that they are being unfair to HER! Simply masterful!

So has the Media been unfair? Mike Huckabee: Though they have pointed out that Mike Huckabee's campaign was mathematically irrelevant, they always protrayed him as the charming and entertaining guy that he is, and indicated that he is in the race for all the RIGHT reasons. John McCain: Sure, the NYT attacked him, but the rest of the media tore them apart and distanced themselves from that article, Barack: Yes, they have spent a lot of time covering how he has inspired people, and brought out the young vote .. why? coz no one has done it on a long time... Candidates have run filthy campaigns before, campaigns have scared, divided people before, campaigns have swept the primaries but no one has done what he has .... so thats NEWS not bias! As for Hillary: When she was the frontrunner, she got the front runner treatment and they said her candidacy was inevitable, when she ran on experience, they probed her about her experience ... why coz she WAS running on experience ? And when she lost 11 states in a row, a feat which would have eliminated candidates like Obama, the media did not rule her out, and rightfully so, she is a fighter! And yes they were covering her day to day because she was and is giving a performance that overshadows Ed Nortons performance in both Primal Fear and Fight Club! One day she says she is honored to be on stage with him .. the next she is says "Shame on you!" She screams that he has no solutions, but the next week 45 minutes into the debate, their solutions are 95% the same ....

But her strategy just before Ohio was masterful. She decided to go as negative as possible while accusing Barack of running a negative campaign. Result. She managed to trick the media into thinking they were biased towards her. They never pounced on the fact that she quoted SNL in a formal debate (On the same show Tina Fey called her a BITCH!), we never heard anything about her tax returns, all we heard were a series of questions for Barack, several of which he definitely owed answers. While getting the media to ignore her follies, and actions, and getting them to do all her digging work, she set the stage for Republicans to jump on Obama too. Join her in attacking him on the relevant issues, and team up (separately of course) in raising the beautiful issues of "Is Barack Muslim?" "Why is his middle name Hussein?" "What was he wearing in a photo?", giving Barack 48 hours to respond to the good, the bad, the ugly, and the downright retarded!

Congrats media, stand up job on the reporting! You got punked!
