McCain Has One Chance to Match Obama With The Media, Do a Rap Duet with Shaq

Sorry Bridget, the media hasn't been fair to anything but profit and sensationalism since Congress went along with Reagan's dump of the Fairness Doctrine in 1987. Since then the public, and yes voters, have been fed a steady diet of Britney, Lohan, Paris, celebrity chit chat, murder, rapes, fires, floods, disasters, car chases, brain dead, unfunny sitcoms, anything but reality shows, miles of blaring commercials and endless heated debate over political fluff (Hillary's hemline, Obama-Michelle's fist bump, Edwards $400 hair cuts, McCain's hot temper). This is what purports to pass as intelligent, reasoned, discussion of the issues.

Don't kid yourself Obama is only getting the overkill media attention because he's a political oddity. He's a young, black, hip-hop looking presidential candidate who can play basketball and dance. In short, he's tailor made copy for the stuff that the media has feasted off of since the dump of the FD. McCain has one chance to equalize things with Obama. Do a rap duet with Shaq.
