What happened to the media's crush on President Obama? In the second 100 days of his administration, the majority of press coverage was bad, with the president's policy proposals receiving more criticism than praise from reporters.
According to a study by researchers at George Mason and Chapman universities, 59 percent of press coverage was positive during Obama's first 100 days in office, but then it dipped to 43 percent from May through mid-August. Especially tough on Obama was Fox News.
Researchers analyzed portions of "Special Report with Bret Baier" because it most resembled a network newscast and found that 25 percent of the show's coverage of the president was positive. That's actually a little higher than the 21 percent positive coverage Obama garnered from the Fox News Channel show during his first 100 days.

Yeah, from 97% constant worship and adoring adulation to only 93%. He is in deep doo doo. ;-P
“in the second 100 days of his administration, the majority of press coverage was bad”?
HOrse crap.
The media is still up this marxist punks rear end.
Just look at who outed ACORN, and it wasn’t and MSM.
Last year when the 'McCain or Die' crowd was going nuts I remembered how in 1993+1994 there was only Rush really going after Clinton's and democrats ,and with time the MSM was forced to go after democrats too. Part of it was boredom of having nothing to do, the other was loss in ratings, readers, viewers. Rush appeared on covers of US News and World Report and News Week in flattering stories. The Mccain or Die-ers swore it would never happen, and that Obama could pass everything.
But this time we have FNC (and national talk radio). And because of ACORN story and Van Jones, MSM is forced to report on FNC giving it more viewers.
“They told me I was crazy when I said the media would eventually have to attack Obama to some extent. “
Not me I agree with you. Obama is a commie pinko ratlet, and an incompetent boob. The MSM will have to let go of their little pet sooner or later.
B U M P
I am with you. America thinks Marxism is the answer. Obama is the cure. We have no say this year, so we can just try to enjoy the ride. Next year all focus will be on Obama to keep his promises and fix things. Now he's the liberal messiah, but will be hung once elected by same fickle liberal press looking for blood.
