7. The media need CONFLICT in order to create their "stories"...
We, at last, have an example of ADULT leadership in President Obama. He is an adult leader who is forced to deal with childish behavior.

The media depend on the adult v. children squabbles that keep them going. How could they survive with facts...... minus the drama? The conflict is what keeps them in business. If they don't have it, they create it. And are there any creators of conflict BETTER than the Republicans?

(The media and Republicans feed off of each other. Neither could survive without the other.)
