Media Sigh:
Breathy Op/Ed Titled “Obama Revels in Power.” Substitute Castro, Kim Jong Il or…Bush. Still OK?
Coming from Reuters, what else could we expect? Yet, the editorialist, Steve Holland, is probably considered a right-wing extremist at that moderate communist wire service. In his op/ed piece, he actually credits Ronald Reagan with winning the Cold War.
But as much as Holland’s piece glows with admiration, at least it’s not the peppy, oh-boy-oh-boy-oh-boy, panting style of the NBCwashington.com/Access Hollywood piece in which Simon Cowell exhibits his master media manipulation skills in getting Drudge-worthy press by merely saying his American Idol show will issue a “daily” invite to the Prez.
The resulting title (cue teenage girl and post-menopausal FemiNazi screams of delight): “President Obama To Visit ‘American Idol’?”
