http://log.chrisdzombak.net/post/33824208May 5 Truthdig - The Other Campaign "As the Democratic convention draws closer, the candidates are making their cases more and more directly to the superdelegates. On the Sunday before the Indiana and North Carolina primaries, Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton each made hour-long appearances on morning talk shows that few voters actually watch. It’s the party insiders who never miss a “Meet the Press” who probably will decide the nomination, and the candidates know it." 3 minutes ago Truthdig - Cartoons - The Wright Distraction at the Wrong Time 3 minutes ago

CARTOON: THE WRIGHT DISTRACTION AT THE WRONG TIME. WILL SOMEBODY TELL THE MEDIA WE ARE AT WAR
http://corksphere.blogspot.com/2008/05/cartoon-wright-distra...Would somebody let the mainstream media in the United States know we are still at war in Iraq and Afghanistan. Tune into FOX NEWS, MSNBC and CNN and all you get is non-stop coverage of the Obama/Hillary races for POTUS. In fact, for months the media in the United States has given the cold shoulder to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. It would take a monumental event for the three cable news outlets to break their non-stop reporting on politics to cover anything that is happening in either Iraq or Afghanistan. We still have 160,000 troops deployed to Iraq and 30,000 deployed to Afghanistan, but you would never know it by watching FOX NEWS, MSNBC or CNN. They don't care. Apparently all the moguls at the cable news stations feel wearing an American flag lapel pin is all they have to do to show their support for our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan. Instead, the media, especially FOX NEWS, have gone totally off the rails rehashing the Rev. Jeremiah Wriight comments and how it will impact on the Barak Obama campaign. This Mike Luckovich cartoon sums up EXACTLY how the media is looking at events that really are important to the American public: http://www.truthdig.com/cartoon/item/20080505_the_wright_distraction_at_the_wrong_time/
