The media's Messiah

[mahnmut]

Six days to go, and Obama is gearing up for the election. His huge financial backing now pays back by effectively OWNING the whole PR/media machinery of the US.

(Still, he won't buy time on the Disney Channel, to the relief of his daughters.)

Define "worse" :-)

Find a pro-McCain article in the mainstream European press.

Or, well, just take those Canadian tv presenters who decline to report on the Republican agenda.

Haven't you seen that global survey where Obama receives 70-80% of the vote?

I have, but explain how the world favouring Obama over McCain is "worse".

Favouring either one is not the journalists' job. Or if they choose to do so, they should drop their "impartial" label.

Besides, there's a major idealisation of Obama done in the media and among people.

Obama runs for the presidency of the United States, he'll lead a superpower. So many things will not change. There will be unilateral decisions, he will act in the interests of the US first and foremost - just to name the main points.

Its more fun to write about the young, black guy rather than the old white guy.

The same way Palin got a lot more attention than Biden got.

Absolutely.
