Left-Wing Group Claims Media Bias in Favor of McCain By James Hirsen August 5, 2008 The far-left group Media Matters is advertising on local cable network markets and making a pretty wild assertion. The ad spots claim that the media are biased in favor of John McCain's presidential campaign. The ad features select edited video segments of various news personalities, including Brit Hume, Chris Matthews, and Bob Schieffer. Footage has been strung together in such a way as to give the impression that the media are favoring McCain when most of the media are really infatuated with Barack Obama. Noticeably absent from the ad is Matthews' now infamous admission that he felt chills go up his leg while listening to the Illinois senator. Also featured prominently in the ad is an unflattering cartoon caricature of McCain pondering whether “they love me” or “they love me not,” and ultimately concluding that “they [the media] love me.” After all three network anchors made the trek with Barack to Iraq, claiming bias in the other direction just seems plain Ludachris. |
