Is the MSM souring on the POTUS?

Post by AlanM »

Or is this an anomaly?

Chris Matthews sours on Obama
By DYLAN BYERS | 5/15/13 7:05 PM EDT

President Obama "obviously likes giving speeches more than he does running the executive branch," Chris Matthews said tonight.

Yes, you read that right: The MSNBC host who in 2008 felt a "thrill going up my leg" after hearing Obama speak has grown disenchanted. Tonight's episode of Hardball saw Matthews delivering a rare, unforgiving grilling of the president as severe as anything that might appear on Fox News.

Anybody got any more examples of the MSM seeing the light?

I think the AP tapping has execs and celebs worried that the government might know about their indiscretions, and they want to get out their man in his place.

It's a shame it took this long before the media did anything, but I guess if the government is targeting everyone but you, who cares right? Does this sound familiar?
First they came for the gun owners,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a gun owner.

Then they came for the tea party tax exempt status,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't in the tea party.

Then they came for my phone records,
and there was no one left to speak for me.

Don't worry: Matthews will be sporting wood for Obamao again, as soon as the prez offers up another bone to the socialist hordes.

Even I've heard Obamites who praised the mighty master recently recant and/or renounce their overlord.

Funny how the truth comes out during the 2nd term. I'm quite giddy at how he's having to answe to all his misguided statements, horrible appointees and more. I'm grabbing me and rum and coke and watching this play out like a TV Soap Opera right now.

The MSM is part of what for lack of a better word is the Triumvirate of power...the military, the government, and the media that hold it all together.

They all work hand in glove in the end. This is a sideshow.

If today's collection of Sunday talking heads is any indication, the media is back to giving the POTUS his daily tongue bath.
