Jack Cafferty: McCain is a whiner ("Kill McCain's audio in my ear please") LOL
McShame's campaign is going after Andrea Mitchell. McWhiner was angry at the insinuation from the Obama Campaign that he had heard the questins before meeting Reverend Warren and the McLosers slammed Good Andrea for reporting this. Now McCone wants to sit with NBC Prez to discuss this issue. Cafferty then quoted a media study saying that MSM is tougher on Obama than McCain.

2. Here is the link at CNN
http://caffertyfile.blogs.cnn.com/

John McCain is whining about the media — again. His campaign manager, Rick Davis, wants to meet with the president of NBC News to protest the network’s coverage… saying it’s abandoning “non-partisan coverage” of the presidential race.

McCain’s not happy with what NBC’s Andrea Mitchell said on “Meet the Press” yesterday, when she questioned whether McCain may have known about some of the questions at the faith forum Saturday night ahead of time. John McCain was supposed to be held in a so-called “cone of silence” during Barack Obama’s interview, which happened first. But it turns out McCain was in his motorcade on the way to Rick Warren’s church during the interview.

McCain’s campaign insists the Arizona Senator didn’t hear the broadcast of the event in the car and didn’t hear any questions. They say the insinuation from Obama’s camp that McCain cheated is outrageous and they’re going after Andrea Mitchell for “simply repeating Obama campaign talking points”.

This isn’t the first time McCain has been critical of the media’s coverage of the race. The campaign recently put out a video spoofing how much the media love Obama.

A recent Pew Poll found 48% of those surveyed say they’re hearing too much about Barack Obama, compared to 26% who feel the same way about John McCain. But, a media study that came out last month found that NBC, ABC, and CBS were tougher on Obama than they were on McCain during the first six weeks of the general election campaign.

Here’s my question to you: How would you rate the objectivity of the news media in covering the presidential race?

5. "McCain’s campaign insists the Arizona Senator didn’t hear...even
...in the car and didn’t hear any questions."

Technically true, perhaps. But who's to say that someone in the car WITH HIM didn't hear the broadcast and simply relayed the questions to McCain? That way McCain can "truthfully" claim that HE didn't cheat--he got someone to cheat FOR him!

:headbang:

9. That's why he doesn't have his own show and Morning Joe
and Tricky Dick Gregory have their own show.

JC does not lie, I'm shocked he is still able to keep his job.

Love Jack!
