Obama and Momma.

As Johnny Carson use to say funny funny stuff:

Eh Tu(be) Washington Post?

I watched a little of the You Tube/Anderson Cooper debates on CNN last night. Somewhat interesting but, still the mainstream media filter gets in the way and the politicians where still politicians. But, what struck me was the coverage in today's Washington Post. In a front page article by Daniel J. Balz and Anne E. Kornblut which clearly show the mainstream media bias for the "front runners" namely Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama. In reading the article one finds only Clinton and Obama mentioned in the first part of the article. It is not until the twelfth paragraph that another candidate (Kucinich) is even mentioned. This this kind of bias the skews U.S. political discussion and rarely gives readers a broad picture of the candidates who participated in the debate. A perfect example of the blinders the mainstream media puts on in political reporting and ignores or minimizes other candidates besides Obama and Clinton is this paragraph:

Former senator Mike Gravel (Alaska) once again played the role of scourge, attacking Obama for the way he has raised money -- a charge Obama quickly sought to rebut -- while complaining that he was being ignored through most of the debate.

Of course this paragraph on Gravel was the last paragraph in the article.
