Since the media intentionally ignored Edwards infidelity when he was running for president?

Question

what shall we make of their attacks on Palin?

Answer 1

The Media are in love with Obama Some men Reporters want to have s*x with him, Liberal press will get us all killed one way or another Americans better wake up.

Answer 2

Yes...Why is that... How bout it Dems???? Why no condemnation for Edwards.. One Way hypocritical idiots...

Answer 3

The media is biased and liberal.  There is no more objectivity or good reporting anymore.  The only two reporters of recent that actually reported news of all sides were Tony Snow and Tim Russert.

The media chooses what stories will be followed up, what stories will be written and what stories will be aired and the extent of that coverage.  We - the American people - only hear what the media wants us to hear and the spin they put on it determines how we hear it.  

Think about that - we only know what we are being told.  Kinda scary!

Answer 4

Good question.

Palin admitted this.  Edwards denied his stuff to the very last.  

Answer 5

Some might conclude that the media is biased and is trying to swing the election to Obama.l

Answer 6

"intentionally ignored"?  I never even heard rumors until long AFTER Edwards left the race.  When they had PROOF of his infidelity...the media covered the story.  Same with Palin.  Its clear that her daughter is pregnant - thats NEWS.  Its clear that she lied about the bridge to nowhere - that's NEWS.  It clear that she worked to get tens of millions in earmarks for Wasilla while she was mayor - that's NEWS.

Next.

Answer 7

They didn't ignore it they could not prove it because he denied it on several shows and interviews and only admitted it after he was out of the race. Palin did not have that luxury because she is still in the race and it would have been obvious soon.

Answer 8

I'm a Democrat but I think that most of the attacks on Palin are ridiculous. The stuff about her daughter is irrelevant. You can't control another person, even your own daughter and the young lady obviously has a lot of support (unlike a lot of pregnant teens) so I think it isn't anyone's business, she certainly isn't going to be raising the kid on public funds so it's time to let that go. As far as she herself not being experienced my opinion is that no one is experienced for President unless they are an incumbent. If something should happen to McCain at that point she will be experienced (unless it's the 2nd day in office and I doubt that is going to happen). Move on people, she's not Hillary and no one expects her to be, she's Sarah Palin.

Answer 9

They're hypocrites and cowards!  What else is new?
