IBD on Media Coverage of Obama

Good stuff.  An excerpt:

Media Bias: The biggest surprise of the Democratic convention? The spectacle of journalists applauding Barack Obama’s acceptance speech. OK, maybe not the biggest surprise. But certainly one of the biggest disgraces.
Andy Barr reported on The Hill’s blog that “several members of the media were seen cheering and clapping for” Obama as he accepted the Democratic nomination Thursday.
“Dozens of men and women wearing green media floor passes chanted along with the crowd,” Barr also noted, adding that “two members of the foreign press exchanged opportunities to take each other’s picture while wearing an Obama hat and waving a flag” while “several others nearby screamed ‘woo’ during some of Obama’s biggest applause lines.”
IBD’s own reporters covering the convention confirm Barr’s reporting.
