More evidence of media hatchet job on Dean?
http://abclocal.go.com/wjrt/news/012904_NW_r2_group_deanscream.html

Another reason why we need to put more time between early primary rounds, so that the media can't destroy who they want in this "momentum" driven process.

1. Well.....


It was overplayed and it damaged him.

There is a reason you hire consultants. It's so things like that don't happen.

Bush has the best in the biz, but I also don't remember Bush being shown 700 times with the "fool me once, shame on you" fumble which was the dumbest thing I have ever witnessed in my life.

Bet yeah, the media in this country is a fucking joke any way you slice it.

4. 10 bucks the media pumped up dean too.
...and fluffed up his numbers prior to iowa and nh, in order to predict downward momentum slide, which started it all. fox was even graphing out the dean downward trend, etc. what if the trend was artificially induced? particularly since polls have a plus/minus 5 percent, u can say just about anything.
