with both good and bad points for hillary and obama.
It felt weird. I was so used to the hillary bashing

I think when SNL made fun of them they thought "oh, are people noticing."
I noticed the same thing today, it seems to be much more balanced than it has been lately.
either that, or they figure she's so far behind from where she was that they can safely be "balanced"...
I guess I shouldn't be so cynical, but it's hard to have a lot of faith in any big-business process that communicates and influences the public.
I don't think she is that far gone really, it will be easy to pull out for her, after all, she will get the delegates from Florida and Michigan :)Quote:

I agree. They gave Obama a huge hand up to balance the race then got caught out for being so biased, and now that Hillary is going to lose they can go back to "balanced" reporting. We'll see how long it lasts.Quote:

The press fixing an election is a huge disservice to the public.
I use BBC annnnd France24. Call me eurotrash, but I feel like the news is a lot more straight-up.
