A distinct mantra from far-right press critics in recent years has centered around the fantastic claim that not only do the media have a liberal bias, but that the corrupted press corps works in unison with the Obama White House at all times; that the press no longer functions independently but that its role is to protect Obama at all costs.

The result of the grand media conspiracy? The press has refused to ask Obama tough questions.

Ever.

Fox News' Sean Hannity made that claim this week. And from National Review Online’s Jonah Goldberg, in the wake of the Republican debated hosted by Fox News :

2. They are telling a damn lie!!!

During the campaign he did interviews in which I screamed at the teevee"Don't do it" Every time he did an interview they wanted more and more and more but they let these asshole republiCONS get away with not talking.

Gingrich has the damn nerve to claim he gets gotcha questions,we are doing the interviewing we don't want to hear a damn speech of which all of them say the same damn thing.

3. Every time I hear...

rightwingers talking on a panel,they never get challenged on this I was very involved in the campaign and watch every interview that McCain and Obama did and Obama answered every question and did interviews with everyone tv,magazines and online.

McCain if he did do interviews he got angry because he didn't want to be challenged.
