I used to watch MSNBC but when Matthews and Olbermann started a relentless love affair with Obama, I quit. I went to CNN hoping to get balanced coverage. (I don't need it to be all pro-Hillary.) By the PA primary I was (gasp) watching FOX news. I am not recommending one do that on a regular basis. My point is that I have no idea what the media is trying to do except ensure a McCain win. All the corporate moguls are Republicans or arch-conservatives. Every single news station on radio or TV was saying at 7:00 p.m. on the night of the PA primary that it was too close to call. I am not sure what was up with that, but the polls had not closed. I am commiserating here in a way, because I think it is all so skewed. Anyway, good luck finding a channel.
