That's my unsolicited comment to the idiot, Marc Halperin, and every other media hack right now. They sold their souls for an Obama presidency. The market share(s) across the board for each and every one of these media outlets took a corresponding nose dive as a result of the obvious bias. Their numbers were abysmal during one of the most exciting political contests in recent memory.
How do I know, without reservation, that Halperin's comments were nothing more than a half-assed attempted to gain back readers by taking the lead in wooing disgruntled and disgusted consumers? He can say stuff like this:
"It was extreme bias, extreme pro-Obama coverage."
When we know the "whore" actually means stuff like this:
Friday (10/10/04),internal memo at ABC News by Marc Halperin:
"[T]he current Bush attacks on Kerry involve distortions and taking things out of context in a way that goes beyond what Kerry has done.
Kerry distorts, takes out of context, and mistakes all the time, but these are not central to his efforts to win ... I'm sure many of you have this week felt the stepped up Bush efforts to complain about our coverage. This is all part of their efforts to get away with as much as possible with the stepped up, renewed efforts to win the election by destroying Senator Kerry at least partly through distortions.
It's up to Kerry to defend himself, of course. But as one of the few news organizations with the skill and strength to help voters evaluate what the candidates are saying to serve the public interest. Now is the time for all of us to step up and do that right."
Marc Halperin is a souless whore who is, only now, more concerned about how a piss poor circulation figure effects a piss poor advertising rate which effects the career dissipation light blinking just off stage right. These water carriers don't seem to understand that credibility is not built in an afternoon. It is earned over time. The print (and network) media have run out of time. He can shove it up his posterior; which I believe costs extra in Halperin's world.
