Clinton Chair Praises Fox News, Says 90% of the Media in the Tank for Obama

Let me try that again. Every time they try to find something wrong with him, it brings out something wrong with them, mainly how ... etc,

Sean Hannity and Bill O'Reilly are so obsessed with bringing Obama down that they don't see that the more they try, the stronger he gets. Every time they try to find something wrong with them, mainly how they have to choose their guests carefully now because they discovered early that they can't handle the ones who have minds of their own. Thier remedy for those people are to not let them finish. O'Reilly says famously, "OK, you have the last word" then when they try to have it, he interrupts them if they are not makng HIS point and gets the last word anyway. Only people with brains the size of a pinhead would base their final opinion on that trick. Amd Sean, did he go to school?

confused,

You are 100% correct. But let me unconfuse you. It's not about the facts it's about amusing oneself.

Notice how when the facts are presented with evidence that cannot be refuted it gets ignored.

Time to get dinner ready.

Was anybody as put off as I was by Hillary's telling of the story of the "dead woman" who voted for her and somehow made a lifelong legacy for herself by so doing?

@NinaK... well put! maybe a little to rational for the I'm gonna vote for McCain out of spite/FOX really is fair and balanced all of a sudden crowd but what the !%#&
@Debra, etc... "ding-dong the witch is dead!" get over it already

How about Chris Matthews statement last night--while coanchoring the MSNBC primary night coverage--that Hillary Clinton is "the Al Sharpton of white people"? This is a far cry from the unbiased reporting of the news. MSNBC should either fire Matthews or suspend him then not renew his $4 million contract which is up this year.

Yes, this has been the most biased, misogynist coverage I have ever seen.

It is a testament to Senator Clinton's abilities and fortitude that she does as well as she does despite being treated like this by the media and outspent ridiculously at every turn by Senator Obama -- while the media functions as apologists for his many gaffes, insults and nefarious associations.

Can you imagine where we would be now if the press had done their jobs from the beginning.

Hello, Madame Nominee!

NinaK...go to your everloving Obama news coverage and CHANGE THE CHANNEL, FROM THE ONLY FAIR AND BALANCED CABLE NEWS. WAY TO GO FOX (and don't you just love Sean Hannity who has the gonads to keep newsworty Obama stories out there, so American's can learn who this guy really is).

Gotta love Hannity and Colmes, each supporting the only two candidates I could ever vote for....Hannity/McCain or Colmes/Clinton. I love how Colmes said one night last week, he is a Hillary supporter...I thought he was in it for BO.

The great thing about FOX news is the payoff in viewership for fair and balanced coverage. I was on a website for cable news ratings and they were 7 times that of anybody else. I might even be underestimating. CNN and MSNBC should be worried.

The media coverage has been appallingly biased for Obama and he has used it brilliantly. MSNBC has made a mockery of cable "news". FOX really does look fair and balanced by comparison.

CNN and MSNBC are so blatantly pro-Obama, which is why I won't watch their campaign coverage anymore. If Hillary had lost by 41% to Obama we'd still be hearing their applause filling the airwaves It is so biased! FOX is the only channel that will give the audience more fair reporting and discussions. Thank you FOX!
RISE, HILLARY, RISE!

This is a typical example of journalistic bias : I just read an article by Maureen Dowd (New York Times) but dropped it quickly, for it's sickening to read such hatred and contempt.
"Bitter Hillary and her bitter supporters" as she mentioned the West Virginian vote. This is alienating for Hillary supporters and don't be surprised her OBi man won't get many of their votes. And talk about divisive. That Dowd is nothing but venom and that kind of thing has been going on for months.
Hillary supporters should show they don't accept being treated with such irrespect by just voting in the next primaries. Pass word around.

I saw him twice. he looks like crazy and out of mind.
He is saying whatever things.Out of control.
....what is a medical term.... d-ebil?
or c-retin?

I think it is at least 90% Biased coverage. Actually this is exacly the kind of across the board slanted coverage (including the costant use of the Obama talking points) that could cost any candidate 20% in nationwide polls.

The fact that this barrage of the MSM has been ongoing makes Hillary's continued competitiveness all the more remarkable.

To Ninak,
it's the media that keeps mentioning that Hillary's supporters are old people and uneducated poor white americans who make less than 50000$ a year. For one this is not completely true because a lot of educated people support her as well.
It's a poor way of diminishing the impact of voters who support her by mocking their social status. Never forget that America was founded by hard working pioneers and hard work has never hurt anyone, it can only help except if you work hard and don't get a chance, which might be true these days because the world has moved and so economy.
We are in the world of speculation with ruthless practice from big financial groups. The gap between the young generation and the old generation lies there. Youth nowadays are into internet and visual effects. What does that mean "hope and change"? if not the illusion of it? As the world and so do american have to deal with the planet warming and the ice melting, it takes responsibility, work, and consciousness, along with imagination to do something to help avoiding big catastrophy, while dealing with everyday life and existence.
Please don't give me rhetoric, show me the capacity of the leader to work out the way towards solutions, only then one can talk about unity for only such a leader can coalesce americans behind him or her. OB is not the one. Show me courage, combativity, imagination to carry out the challenge of this complex era of planetarian consciousness.
You are lucky enough to live in a rich country, with some freedom. Go to Africa, to poor asian countries, to norht african countries and you can appreciate the hard working mentalities of americans who have contributed to shape America.

The problem with the news media today is that it has become fractured and splintered into an entirely new entertainment industry but is still viewed under the "old-school" umbrella business that was perceived to merely report facts. Today, opinions and agendas are concealed and passed off as "fact". It's as if the editorial and op-ed. pages of the newspaper were placed on the front page and sold as "news". This is disingenuous and harmful.
Furthermore, "old-school" investigative reporters are simply not doing their jobs. For fear of losing their access to newsmakers, they too often become mouthpieces to politicians who obviously see value in presenting a story in a favorable light.
The solution: American citizens need to start performing the duties that a democracy requires of them and the most important of these is to get informed. It will become increasingly difficult for some kiss-ass posing as a journalist to sell their spin as news if their audience starts using some basic critical thinking skills. Get on your job Americans!

The basic problem here with the media is that they are NOT independent organizations; they are corporations driven by Wall Street's demands to make money. Sensationalism sells; and it's much cheaper to sensationalize some small point than to do an in-depth story. Why is it so many people don't know what Obama's accomplished? He's gotten some variety of legislatin passed, he's traveled abroad in the service of arms reduction, but you hardly hear about any of this from the regular press, much less the TV media. And how are we to evaluate Clinton's claim of experience without some extensive review? How about, say, assessments from various people who've worked alongside the candidates over the years?—But that would mean hiring more reporters, who might have to put in some days' work just on one story. Let's not forget how busy the media were cutting back on real reporting, closing down news bureaus, in the last few decades just so they could increase their profit margin.
It's also important to remember that the elections represent BIG money for the media from the millions and millions of dollars worth of election ads bought. How critical is any media outlet likely to be of a candidate who might send lots of money their way? How is all that money likely to influence the coverage of a candidate? --Oh, reporters will claim to and even believe themselves to be independent, but it's not likely that any who were inclined to go too far outside the orbit of what a media company found acceptable would have their job for too long.
Another effect of the lure of ad money is that candidates who aren't seen as raising alot of money are dismissed early by the media as not a viable candidate; are given little coverage; and are dismissed from debates, even while they are still running. What an insult to the American people, what a stifling of democracy, to have some media giant decide which of that candidates we are going to get to hear!
The greed of investors for a high profit has corrupted our media. Considering how vital media is to the functioning of democracy,as the Founding Fathers recognized, we ought to be thinking of ways we can limit the demands of that greed and have at least some media––and not just the web, but the common popular media people here are referencing repeatedly--free from the choking constraints of excessive profit and working in the service of the democracy Americans deserve.

It's pretty obvious, all you have to do is pay attention to media coverage to see the bias. If obama wins a state - even if it's a state he's been long projected to win - it's like he won the nomination, he's the king, blah blah blah. If hillary wins a state, it's like, this doesn't change anything, let's move onto the next state. Ugh.

Hillary's just been getting stronger and stronger and has become a better campaigner and candidate. Obama has been getting weaker and weaker.
