"The real enemy is the media, and they see themselves as the only superdelegates." - Eschacon

Next is Media Matters' Eric Boehlert. He refers us to McCainFreeRide.com for the excellent book produced by Media Matters, Free Ride. MM doesn't use the word "bias," but there's a new phenomenon ... it goes back to Gore's press in 1999 which was "really unfair and really weird." What's happening online now is potentially dangerous: HRC has gotten dreadful press, not fair, "gotcha," and so on -- there's a portion of the blogosphere that has ignored that and there's a portion that has encouraged that. It's dangerous because the media criticism has to be consistent and relentless, and we can't very well say, "You can't go after our candidates ... except this one." I get nervous about pushback regarding disingenuous coverage - our response needs to be, "You can't treat Democrats this way." When people in the left blogosphere are quoting an anonymous Matt Drudge source, it makes me nervous.

Madrak: the rule of thumb is that if you read or hear something that makes you hate another Democrat, you need to dig down further because there's more to the story. The real enemy is the media, and they see themselves as the only superdelegates.

1. HRC has gotten dreadful press

Clinton is only still in this race because the MSM keeps touting her as being basically the front runner despite Obama being ahead since the Iowa caucus in pledged delegates.

That hardly qualifies as "dreadful press".

2. Imo, the only "over-the-top" story in this campaign has been the Wright issue.

I would even say that that issue is "fair" if the other candidates were held to a similar standard.

3. Do You Believe Chris Matthews Campaign Coverage Is Not Over the Top?

And do you believe that Keith Olbermann is causing no harm with his blatantly anti-Clinton / pro-Obama broadcasts?

4. Have they brought up Doug Coe? Rod Parsley?

KO is definately in the bag for Obama. His coverage probably isn't as unfair as you think, though.
Matthews is an idiot with a very small audience.

I really wish you all the best. I've been where you are too damn many times. Peace.

5. Tweety's coverage is over the top.

I give Keith a pass because Abrams follows him and Abrams is very pro-Clinton. IMO, they cancel each other out.
