Michele Bachmann's campaign accused CBS News of bias after her spokeswoman was included on an email chain between network officials that suggested she would get limited questions during Saturday's debate.
In the email chainwhich the Bachmann campaign posted to its Facebook page a CBS employee notified CBS News political director John Dickerson that Bachmann spokeswoman Alice Stewart had volunteered the candidate for an interview on Dickerson's post-debate webcast. The employee copied Stewart on the email and told Dickerson that she had been included on the message.
"Okay let's keep it loose though since she's not going to get many questions and she's nearly off the charts in the hopes that we can get someone else," Dickerson replied, apparently unaware that Stewart was copied on the email.

CBS has always been the worst. Their radio news spots are pure commie/ dem lies and propoganda.
Well, she has the goods. An apology is appropriate from the baboons at CBS.
BTTT
Sun rises in the east.
Busted
If lawyers and Doctors can be disbarred, or even jailed for mal practice, why cant the same be done for media? Do they not do as much damage as a bad lawyer? Can we disbar and suspend some peoples ability to broadcast or print their opinion.
Bear. In woods.
Also, why is Bachmann still even in the race? I got on her email list for filling out some petition or survey, and while she keeps insisting that she won every debate and is the only conservative who can beat Obama, at this point I don’t think she could even beat Romney for the nomination.
(Note: this is not an endorsement of Romney by any stretch!)
Thanks South40. Hey, if she wants coverage, she needs to eff something up, or dig up dirt on herself. Otherwise, forget it. ;’)
I love it when the “media” gets caught orchestrating our elections.
It's time some candidates start accepting reality.
lol. All of them are the exact same way. They all report the same stories with the same slants and ignore the same stories.
Shouldn’t there be a [Captain Obvious Alert] on this?
Accuse CBS of sex discrimination, Michele.
Worst debate too...Pelley cutting off answers without letting finish last thoughts....
gotch questions left and right....just pathetic
CBS wins worst debate and then they attempt to direct traffic to their website...
no thanks lol.
At least one of these.
Like accusing the sky of being blue.
I wasn't a victim of that; I saw the entire debate. I can't imagine why they would do something so asinine. Of course it is SEE-BS so that might be all the explanation needed.
The GOP needs to stop letting the left moderate their debates, they will never get any depth into the issues otherwise.
