Carry on.
Faux news is bias. I don't think anyone with a reasonable mind would accept that they aren't.
However the very same McCain that claimed the media as his base (no single medial outlet but the entire media) is now the one who's campaign crowd is claiming there is bias? Why because Obama is getting more coverage than McCain is for taking up McCain's challenge? , that's not bias, that's simply reporting the news, Obama's trip around the ME and Europe let's see how many news worthy points. #1 taking up McCain's challenge to go to Iraq.
#2 PM of Iraq and several high level officials agreeing with Obama on 16 months as a reasonable strategy.
#3 Obama seeing the situational development in Afganistan vs Iraq and insisting on troops to be moved to Afganistan to concentrate on "war on terror".
#4 Obama is greeted by a crowd of over 200,000 in Berlin and he's not even the president of the US.
#5 Obama visits the Palestinian leadership in the West bank, something that McCain didn't do.

What has McCain done during these past 5 days? In essence claiming that Obama was a traitor in prefering to loose a war for the sake of a political campaign and gone shopping in a super market with some Pennsylvannians.

Re: No Bias in the Drive by Media?

The day Obama was determined to have won the nomination, a FOX BobbleHead "interviewed" a pair of bufoonish, inanely grinning black personalities that looked like grown Buckwheats. One was dressed in an Uncle Sam clown costume and waving a flag. I expect more of this tripe from the corporate lapdog media, especially from Grand Dragon Murdoch.
