The media put forth one of the biggest campaign efforts in American history to "make sure" Obama gets elected. And now they are back peddling in preparation for the possible fallout.

Whether Obama wins or looses, 87% of Americans recognized the bias and while Obama supporters might enjoy it, the 45%-50% of Americans who supported McCain are bitter, angry and see right through it. Many of these media outlets are going to take huge huge hits after the election in loss of viewers and readers of their publications. This due mainly in part to their agenda, often therorized and complained about, has now beyond a shadow of a doubt been proven in this election.

I also just read a report that many media outlets, in collaboration with poll takers and assisting with setting the poll taking criteria are preparing for a "nuclear" fallout if Obama losses.

And if that is not enough McCain supporters, these seething basstards, will give us all one last flying bird tomorrow by trying to tell us the very early exit polls out of all the eastern states show strong leads for Obama. Those of you on the west coast, don't fall for it, make sure and cast your vote no matter what they attempt to do.

Cowboy,

You remind me of a hired clown at a 5 year old's birthday party. You are good for a few animal balloons and a couple of laughs at your own expense but that's about it.

Where do you come up with these facts and figures? I feel like you have a printing press in your basement to make your own newspaper that only you and your pet gerbil read as "news".

You are a funny yet confused man. Enjoy the results tomorrow.

Keep covering your eyes to keep out the truth cowboy!

Fox News is the #1 news channel. Rush Limbaugh is the #1 radio show.

The lack of logic on your part is astounding!!!!

I realize that it's completely useless to even ask this question, but what's your source for these numbers?

Title of thread:

Media already preparing for their "we stepped in it campaign"



That's only so they can guide McCain through the coming days. It's their way of showing him some love. Finally.

Well at least now you know how the rest of us felt about the media leading up to the decision to go to war with Iraq.
