We know the MSM is willing to do 'whatever it takes' to protect Obama but what are they getting in return? It's strange. It's got to be more than the destruction of their credibility with the public...
I think you see this “transaction” backwards.
The MSM is not the propaganda wing of the Democratic Party.
Exactly the reverse.
The Democratic Party and Barack Obama are the political wing of the MSM.
The MSM has the political power and the Hard Left political agenda.
The American MSM also has the most passionate, most creative, most skilled, and most highly paid political activists in world history.
As long as Obama competently serves THEIR political vision, they will back him.
