FTA 5.) Politico staffers were not pleased Politico accused The New York Times and Washington Post of liberal bias/ On May 31, Politico argued in a report authored by Vandehei and Harris that The New York Times and The Washington Post were biased against Romney and in favor of Obama in their political coverage. “Some in the Politico newsroom weren’t happy with the piece. One staffer said it ‘went over extremely poorly’ with the rank-and-file and looked like top writers were simply ‘picking a fight unnecessarily’ with competitors.”

I remember several months ago many FReepers complaining about Politico's left-leaning coverage, talk of avoiding Politico altogether here at FR began to generate interest but it soon died down.Maybe it's time for the Moderators to take another look.

And here I thought Politico still ran their site out of Nancy Pelosi’s office.

NO! You embrace their liberalism? Did you drink their kool aid or do you work for then?

also embraced the idea that everybody at his politics-obsessed enterprise should just keep swallowing their Kool Aid.

Politico is still quoted by so -called conservatives on the talk show circuit.

Middle of the road pack loves Politico.
