CNBC's John Harwood sat down with Barack Obama today and POLITICO's Josh Gerstein gives us a preview:
Asked by CNBC�s John Harwood about perceptions Obama has gotten an easy ride from the press, the president called the charge �very hard for him to swallow,� but then acknowledged �generally positive� coverage. Also took yet another shot at Fox News.
�I�ve got one television station that is entirely devoted to attacking my administration�That�s a pretty big megaphone. You�d be hard pressed if you watched the entire day to find a positive story about me on that front,� Obama said.
�We welcome people who are asking us some tough questions. I think I�ve probably been as accessible as any president in the first six months�..I think that actually the reason people have been generally positive about what we�ve been trying to do is people feel as if I�m available and willing to answer questions and we haven�t been trying to hide the ball.� wow, I remember Bush used to bash all the netwo............oh...right....forgot...he didn't. "generally positive"...about the same as the TV station in Venezuela

He welcomes people who ask tough questions -- unless of course, if they happen to be from Fox. Theirs must be a little too tough, ya think?

the new state controlled media are indispensable to his continued popularity......if the coverage were even approaching fairness, his ratings would be in the dumper, where they objectively belong.
did you see ABC is moving into the White House? I guess if you blow somebody long enough, you can guilt trip them into an overnighter.

For Obama, the MSM media questions are tough and welcome both. Hard not to welcome a good bjob and questions are tough to understand when the reporter asking has your schlong in their mouth.

When has ANY of the media asked King Obama a tough question? I've sure missed it if it has happened.

I totally agree that the media is in Obama's pocket, but Hannity has gone to far in bashing Obama. This is not typical of other Fox news & political shows like O'Reilly. I like Hannity & his heart is in the right place but his ranting does get old. About 15 minutes of Hannity is now enough. I used to listen to his TV show while I did other things. Even Greta is now more entertaining than Hannity & that's going some.

Don't blame Obama for any of that. It's the teleprompter's fault.

Anyone that doesn't drink the kool-aid is a threat which is why we'll have his sorry ass in office for a full eight years. Some are just too damn stupid to tell the difference between b.s.and the truth.

"All Barak Channel" Don't know if anyone mentioned this but ABC got an exclusive all-day, in the White House coverage of Hussein's socialist healthcare propaganda-paluza coming up in the near future. I'm sure that coverage will be fair and balanced. Hope all the "reporters" bring their bibs for that pimp fest.
