Mainstream Media Sells McCain Clinton Establishment Candidates

Establishment presidential candidates:

John McCain

Hillary Clinton

The pair were given media coverage you can't put a price on. Daily Straigth Talk. Every news article features the Straight Talk Express and John McCain's version of it.

Meanwhile look at the tagline given Mitt Romney. Unlimited resources. One media pundit said Romney's getting funding around the country, but if he doesn't get a bump or momentum from a win in Florida, all he has to do is look in the mirror!

Let's throw in John Edwards. The man has wealth, but do we ever hear daily just how much? No, since the mainstream media is lenient on that point with the Democrats, but with Republicans, wealth is equal to shady character and silver spoon.

The Clintons are now rich. Bill is worth millions. Nobody questions how the book deals were made.

John McCain has used the largess of corporations flying around the country on jets. Nobody ever hears about this.

Huckabee plugging his book while he criss-crosses the country. So too do the pundits who talk about him. Nobody questions who published his book.

Rush Limbaugh, Newt Gingrich, Ann Coulter and other conservative all-stars helped L. Brent Bozell and Tim Graham show how the mainstream liberal media have relentlessly promoted Hillary Clinton and protected her from the serious scrutiny she and her left-liberal political agenda deserve. We asked media critic Bozell -- the head of the Media Research Center and Sunday Trib columnist -- to send us his favorite excerpt from "Whitewash: What the Media Won't Tell You About Hillary Clinton, but Conservatives Will (Crown Forum). Here Bozell and Graham are writing about the tender care Hillary received when she was plugging her 2003 memoir, "Living History":

Bill: "We Just Have to Slow Down Our Economy" to Fight Global Warming
January 31, 2008 9:26 AM

Former President Bill Clinton was in Denver, Colorado, stumping for his wife yesterday.

In a long, and interesting speech, he characterized what the U.S. and other industrialized nations need to do to combat global warming this way: "We just have to slow down our economy and cut back our greenhouse gas emissions 'cause we have to save the planet for our grandchildren."
