I’ve observed that the mainstream media is getting a bit tougher on their favorite candidate. There are two further signs of that.
First, ABC’s Jake Tapper actually looked into Barack Obama’s claims of moral superiority and found them to be bunk. Well, one of them at least. Obama claims that he doesn’t take money from corporate bad guys like “oil companies.” No candidate is allowed to take corporate money directly. And Obama has actually taken more money than Hillary Clinton has from oil company employees. Second, the press has been downright fair in setting the record straight and taking Obama and the DNC to task for misconstruing John McCain’s “100 year” Iraq comment.
Perhaps this is a long overdue course correction. Or maybe all that time on the bus with the press is paying off for McCain. But for now, Obama is facing a more skeptical audience. We’ll see if it lasts.
