Politico owners start interjecting themselves into the election's outcome.
Politco owner/editors John F. Harris & Jim Vanderhei, who previously misrepresented Politico's own interview with Barack Obama, and repeatedly and aggressively attacked John Edwards' haircut with numerous big headline news stories, recently penned a transparently obvious hit piece / editorial against Obama and his supporters, accusing the media as being biased in favor of Obama, accusing Obama supporters of "whining" about the balance of the recent ABC debate, and defending that debate as being "more substantive than other debates".
In an attempt to try to give their latest ludicrously slanted editorial -- which they've been relentlessly hyping -- some degree of credibility, they've posted a poll to the bottom right of their front page, asking:
Obama's secret weapon: the media
Do you think many journalists are not merely observers but participants in the Obama phenomenon?
(Note that they aren't asking whether many journalists are not merely observers but participants in the Clinton or McCain campaign. Apparently, everyone knows Bill Kristol's or Paul Krugman's editorials at the NY Times are completely balanced, right?! )
So, take a few seconds, go vote no... and please feel free to crosspost this to let other Obama supporters know that they should do the same.
