No you aren't alone in your opinion of the media.  Regardless of political 
preference, to say that the media isn't overwhelmingly bisaed in favor of 
Democrats would be to ignore the obvious.

And, concerning other issues such as the economic collapse, Ken Lay at Enron 
and Bernie ? at Worldcom, were petty thieves compared to the people at 
Goldman Sachmans, Lehman Brothers, Frediie/Fannie, and half of the bankers 
and hedge fund managers from New York to Connecticut. 

 Those super thieves have not received any of the media scrutiny that Lay and 
co. received.  The flying-monkey bankers and friends have been in the same 
bed as the silly writters (they can write well and still be silly) at the 
NYT, Wash. Post,Chicago Trib., etc, they they have all become together, an 
incestous cesspool of pseudo intellectual dis-enlightenment.

These people go to the same type of schools, subscribe to the same world 
view, and look at the rest of the world through an unnaturally colored prism.

Many Conservatives warned McCain over the years, that all of his liberal 
friends in the media and elsewhere would treat him as a pariah as soon as he 
was a true opponent against a liberal Democrat. They didn't even offer him a 
goodbye kiss.

Americans still believe the main stream media enough to give a big edge to 
their (MSM) preferred candidate.  McCain never had a chance this year.  

And, without some real thinking on the part of the American people, things 
will only get worse.  Dr. Paul at one time was raising more online money than 
Obama, but was still treated, by the media,  as a joke.  There are very few 
serious thinkers given any airplay by the large media, anymore. ...bobford
