President Barack Obama is shattering every record kept on U.S. presidential press coverage in all forms of media.
Over the first six months of 2009, Obama was cited in 1.1 million stories in the mainstream, Internet, and social media — an average of 6,100 references a day, according to a Forbes.com article headlined "Camera Hog in Chief."
"That's more than triple what Obama's last two predecessors, George W. Bush and Bill Clinton, got in the mainstream press during their first six months," Forbes observed.
In the first half of this year, Obama delivered 281 speeches, gave 88 interviews to journalists, hosted 30 news conferences, and emceed 14 town hall meetings, according to Mark Knoller of CBS News, who has covered every president since Gerald Ford.
There is evidence, however, that Americans could be getting "Obama-ed out." His February address to Congress drew 52 million viewers. His news conference in late July, focusing on healthcare, drew 29 million viewers.

So, people are "Obama-ed out"? YET, here you are starting another thread about OBAMA. Funny thing is the majority of threads on this and other boards that are about Obama are started by right wingers not lefties, heck they bring him up in threads that have nothing to do with Obama. Think Obama is getting too much attention? Then don't keep giving it to him, problem solved. I bet you can't do it
