clearly, he's loved by everyone in the media for obvious reasons and rightfully so...having said that, they loved slick willie too.

how long before they turn on him? :obama:

As equally important a question is, when does the 'buyers remorse' sink in for people that picked the Big O? When they notice they're taking home a little less, or when the 'evil' corporation they work for cuts their job?

The media will never turn on him. They can't. They will, instead, do the same thing they did with Slick Willy. They will cheerlead his presidency and continually release uplifting and positive reports about him, while continuing to denigrate the republicans who disagree with him.

This is how a supposedly unbiased press corps works.

This has been something I've wondered about since last weekend. I just don't know. I would hope they would snap out of their high after a few weeks and start being more critical eventually. Eh. whatever. I agree with new's post above. I'm glad Bill is self-employed and I have set myself up to be the best (and only one) who does what I do at work. My job should be safe but Disney is already rumbling about possible layoffs...at least in the media dept's...nothing from the parks yet.

When he doesn't have all of the problems solved in this country within the first 2 weeks of his Presidency, they will turn.

I wonder what the RNC propaganda arm, Fox "News", will do? Will they start the drumbeat to try to destoy Obama, or will they try to make nice for access? I thought it was great that Obama didn't invite them along when he went overseas.
