Can you image Bush saying that Dems would agree if not for NBC?

Me neither because it is inconcievable! But Obama is not above making such statements about Republicans and Fox news.

You can't imagine a conservative politician talking about the impact of the MSM? Really? Did you watch much of the last election?

That is there point. Obama makes a statement like that and its not covered under the same scrutiny as a republican saying it.

You really think that every time a Republican politician criticized the media it's resulted in all kinds of scrutiny?

I wonder if any of them noticed the shot against the New York Times in the very article they published.

By the way, to the OP, Obama's statement was far better than what I have seen Bush say about that very same New York Times, in which he described their reporter covering his campaign using a curse word.

that's not what the OP said, though that would be an equally nonsensical point had they tried to make it.

Actually,I don't particularly think he should call out Fox or Rush like that. But the idea that he's first president to complain about the media is pretty laughable.
