Have You Noticed That Corporate Media Sucks?

Corporate Media Sucks: part the who-the-frack-can-keep count.

ABC's debate was in a class of its own, with more scandal and non-policy questions than any other. ABC asked the most scandal questions, and both ABC and NBC devoted only half of their questions to policy issues. The CNN debates were dramatically more policy-focused. Here's a breakdown:

Policy • Non-Policy • Scandal
CNN (1/31): 31• 3 • 1
CNN (2/21): 23• 5• 2
NBC: 24• 17• 5
ABC: 32 •14 •13

2) Barack Obama has received the overwhelming majority of scandal questions over the course of the four debates, by a margin of 17 to 4. Obama has fielded questions about his "bitter" remarks, his connections to 60s-era radical William Ayers, two questions about flag lapels, two questions about his alleged plagiarism of speeches, three questions on Louis Farrakhan, and eight about Jeremiah Wright.

Clinton has received only four such questions -- two about her Bosnia trip, one about a photo of Obama in African garb that was linked to her campaign without evidence by the Drudge Report, and one over-the-top inquiry about Bill Clinton ("If your campaign can't control the former president now, what will it be like when you're in the White House?").

Almost like there is an agenda or something. Just wait till the Democratic nomination is settled, and debates start with McCain and Obama (probably, though HRC has still a sliver of a chance of winning, I don't see it happening)
