I was just thinking today that there hadn't been a good political debate here in a while. Pleasant surprise! And good points made by all. Granted, the line about Iraq going well almost made me choke on my sandwich but...

Concerning the OP, I agree with those that have said that it really boils down to it all being about ratings and money and getting the story first. The idea of a "liberal media" though is a myth invented by the neo-cons, an easy way to discredit any bad news that happens to come out. It's a pretty ingenious tactic.
