And then what they actually did:
washingtonpost.com
Canned preselected questions, hand picked audience (all of which were strong Obama supporters, coincidentally), one (1) semi challenging question from a Republican, which was ducked. This isn't right, and it seems the people are beginning to agree. The press is starting to revolt, I think they are getting angry at the fact that they are being portrayed as in bed with Obama (though they certainly brought this on themselves) and as a result are seeing their ratings evaporate. We have lost all confidence in the media. As poll numbers plummet, unemployment and deficits continue to rise, and GDP and Obama's TV ratings continue to fall, we are finally seeing some return to reality. Maybe we should have been more critical of these policies (or at least asked lawmakers to read them) a little sooner?
