Time's Mark Halperin: Pro-Obama Bias of Press Most Extreme in Modern History

All this was of course known (and intended) during the campaign. Now that the campaign has been safely won by the press, it's time for the media to begin admitting the obvious and pretending it was all just sort of a mistake which will be remedied in the future.

As the saying goes, it is easier to beg for forgiveness than to receive permission. They did what they, um, needed to do, but now they can pretend they'd have done things differently, if only they'd been aware of their errors as they were making them.

Media bias was more intense in the 2008 election than in any other national campaign in recent history, Time magazine's Mark Halperin said Friday at the Politico/USC conference on the 2008 election.

"It's the most disgusting failure of people in our business since the Iraq war," Halperin said at a panel of media analysts. "It was extreme bias, extreme pro-Obama coverage."

Halperin, who maintains Time's political site "The Page," cited two New York Times articles as examples of the divergent coverage of the two candidates.

"The example that I use, at the end of the campaign, was the two profiles that The New York Times ran of the potential first ladies," Halperin said. "The story about Cindy McCain was vicious. It looked for every negative thing they could find about her and it case her in an extraordinarily negative light. It didn't talk about her work, for instance, as a mother for her children, and they cherry-picked every negative thing that's ever been written about her."

The story about Michelle Obama, by contrast, was "like a front-page endorsement of what a great person Michelle Obama is," according to Halperin.

The standard press apologetics are that 1) if you're winning you get better coverage, so the bias was "neutral" in the sense that McCain would have had the same bias if only he'd been winning and 2) Obama got better coverage only on the (again) "neutral" grounds he was "new," and of course McCain could have had the same biased coverage if only he'd been new.

Two words rebut both of these points utterly: Sarah Palin.

McCain was winning, quite nicely, for two weeks after he announced Palin as his VP. Who was, you know, new. The press did not respond by giving McCain and Palin positive press, but by indulging in a nasty feeding frenzy of dumpster-diving smear-peddling the likes of which we haven't before witnessed in the modern era.

If the bias was purely due to "neutral" non-political circumstances such as "being ahead in the polls" and the "newness" of a candidate, we should have expected to see McCain and Palin feted as the New Hotness Messiahs, replacing the press love for the Old and Busted Messiah Obama. Of course, no such alienation of affection took place among the press. They redoubled their efforts to elect Barack Obama.

Furthermore, of course, the supposedly-neutral bias in favor of the winner obscures the fact that Obama was winning precisely because the press refused to run negative stories about him. While we heard an awful lot about Sarah Palin's $150,000 wardrobe, we heard nothing about the $300,000 discount that convicted political fixer and bagman Tony Rezko got for his good buddy Obama. The press trumpeted every misstatement by McCain and Palin while ignoring every gaffe by Obama and Biden. Etc.

They have no defense. To ladle additional lies upon a breathtaking record of dishonesty adds insult to injury.

Thanks to CJ.

Typical.

This is the media's M.O. For example, they beat their audience over the head with a topic or an event or a personality, then when it runs its course, the media gets another month out of it (whatever it is) with: "Did the media go too far?"

It's all just a big circle jerk, anyway.

I was thinking about something similar this morning. What are the laws regarding slander and the internet? I am certain I have said something that would cross the line, but my understanding of the law would include almost everyone on the internet. Does anyone know if that has been an issue in the past?

6 Any and every "journalist," "analyst," reporter, or expert who did not notice this and declare it at the time prior to the election can FOAD. Disingenuous, proxy mea culpas after the fact should not and will not be accepted.

They obfuscated, lied, and outright campaigned for one ticket and one individual explicitly. The idea that "hey, whoa, now I see the error of my ways - whoopsie," is bullshit revisionism of the highest art.

The silver lining is that the industry is still testing new credibility and economic lows. Not much solace but I'll take what I can get.

Something about a road and good intentions?

The thing that pisses me off the most though is that you really can't do anything about it, not in any meaningful way.  They can lose readers/watchers, but it won't matter in the long run because new recruits for the "kool aid brigade" graduate public schools everyday.  And the MSM really does not give a shit what you or I think.  Consevatives are the evil ones here.  To be defeated at all costs, with any means avaiable.

Even the news updates on the radio were biased. They sounded like ads for Obama. Every day it would be like this:

The candidates are on the campaign trail today. McCain is in Virginia attacking Obama's tax plan...and Barack Obama is in Indiana telling a crowd of thirty-thousand his plan for economic justice and prosperity.

#8, that is bad news. The law for libel apparently includes:

 (i) accusing someone of a crime; (ii) alleging that someone has a foul or loathsome disease; (iii) adversely reflecting on a persons fitness to conduct her business or trade; and (iv) imputing serious sexual misconduct (especially the chastity of a woman)

iii could apply to any politician. Would I be correct to say that almost everyone here is guilty has been guilty of libel at some point?

16 The story about Obama that amazed me was when Michelle got a $200K raise after Barack bacame Senator. And then, in the most blatant conflict of interest that I've seen, Barack puts an earmark into a bill to give the hospital his wife works at $1 million dollars. And the press buried it as best they could.

Posted by: markytom at November 22, 2008 08:15 PM (LaTde)

17 Well, I think the press will continue covering for Obama.  Today's positive reporting on Obama's "plan" to re-institute a WPA style program is an example.  Obama's "plan" wasn't a plan at all, there were no details - just a promise to create 2.5 million jobs by rebuilding the nation's infrastructure and supporting green tech - the same vague rhetoric we've been hearing for 2 years.  Obama mentioned no details about how he would accomplish this.

I think Obama will be an extraordinarily cloistered and inaccessible president, and I think the press will let him get away with it.  Obama is not qualified or experienced enough to be president, which is why he is surrounding himself with so many middle-of-the-road establishment types - to present an aura of competence where there is none.

"It's the most disgusting failure of people in our business since the Iraq war,"

"The example that I use, at the end of the campaign, was the two profiles that The New York Times ran of the potential first ladies,"

We won in Iraq, and Chris Matthews, if he had any dignity will be leading the charge to add bush to Mt. Rushmoore.

and the ONLY two examples you use, are about first ladies?

Thats it?  Noone else was fucked over by your bias?  Just the first ladies, or rather ONE possible first lady?

Nothing else was biased?

Nothing?  At all?  Thats all you got?

Thats like a child who burnt down the house appologizing for stealing his mothers lighter.

Mike, sure if we lie. (can't recall that myself) More generally it comes down to a difference between public and private figures - I forget the exact details, but in general for a public figure it had to have been untrue and the person had to have known it was untrue and been malicious in stating it.

For a private figure, it's saying something that's false to a third party that damages that person (it has to be in a manner where it would be believed by the third party, not just a joke).

This story says that it's OUR fault, we get bullied, and it's OUR fault we are seen as bullies for fight against bullies, but ultimately this is a bullshit, people in power bullie culture.

37 I can't remember which cockholster trotted out the particular justification I'm thinking of, but the most jaw-droppingly arrogant defense I heard was this jackass "journalist" going on about how (to paraphrase) they were doing their job sucking up to Obama because he was clearly the better option, and it was time to put the Bush years behind us, or words to that effect. This knob was deluding himself into believing the insane slant of "news" during this election cycle was justified by the "fact" that Bush and all his policies are evil and Obama is the only one able to deliver the necessary shipment of unicorns to heal the planet.

If the Internet could deliver justified phyisical rage as efficiently as ones and zeros, that scumbag would be in hospital recovering from a beating severe enough to impress a Singaporean corporal punishment officer.

It may be a bunch of things, but nobody has contacted me. I am just trying to figure out how much damage I may have done while I was screwing around on the internet. The political universe and the internet universe are two foreign places to me and instead of treating them as actual things they were abstract and not a part of reality. It is reality though and I need to respect it. Add libel to the mix and the internet really is serious business.

42 Listen to this cockwad from the linked article:

"The biggest bias in the press is towards effectiveness," said Heilemann, who is authoring a book on the 2008 race along with Halperin.
"We love things that are smart."


Which would explain your excellent coverage of the surge and its aftereffects, wouldn't it, you lying sack of shit.

Assuming, of course, that the average journalist even knows what "smart" is. They all seem pretty convinced that they're fucking geniuses, but anytime I read a journalist's take on a subject I actually know a bit about, they almost invariably show they don't understand a goddamn thing they're pretending to 'explain' to readers.

The standard press apologetics are that 1) if you're winning you get better coverage, so the bias was "neutral" in the sense that McCain would have had the same bias if only he'd been winning and 2) Obama got better coverage only on the (again) "neutral" grounds he was "new," and of course McCain could have had the same biased coverage if only he'd been new.

Who would buy this shit lame assed excuse?  WTF difference would it make who exactly was "winning" with regard to the press's obligation to report in a fair, unbiased manner?  Fucking liars, all of them.  I will never, never trust the media again to tell the truth.  Never.

What the hell can be Halperin's motive here:

2. He wants to beg forgiveness from NYT readers?  But, which one out of the fourteen of them asked?

3. He figures Obama is going to crater and wants to start setting up his escape route early?  Then explain that Oboner he's got in his pants.

4. He thinks everyone else is so fucking stupid that he can pull a 180, and we will think he is a great journalist for making up for years of lies with a grudging smidgin of truth, so he can pull it again next time?  Okay Houston, I think we've found the answer!

51 Halperin at least makes an effort to play it straight -- mostly, I think, because his dad worked for Nixon once.

Look, it's pretty much consensus at this point that the media was biased in favor of B.O. Even most media people admit it, although they will still dissemble in explaining it away ("Oh, but the McCain campaign was just so disgraceful!").

Bottom-line: the Right needs its own investigative journalistic capacity. Not simply friendly press outlets or favorable commentators with a seat at prominent tables, but instead honest-to-god investigative journalists. We know these won't come from the journalism schools -- it'll have to be regular folks with their wits, laptops, and digital camcorders digging and uncovering. And then we need to do a lot of praying that faith in the ability of the American electorate to figure out, in the end, the truth isn't misplaced.

62 Anything self-critical at this point from the MSM is a cursory, superficial rehabilitation project.

One, it's self-evident that its bias was profound. That recent YouTube and Zogby expos of ignorant Democrat voters, while seemingly anecdotal, was damning. Those queried learned all of their material from establishment media. Nice reflection on your coverage, you cockholsters.

Two, Obama will not be able to deliver much, if anything, that he promised and the MSM knows it because they know he is a construct, a shell of a leader who really brings nothing but socialistic tendencies to fore, who has a checkered past, and who doesn't actually represent change. By making some confession know sooo after the fact, they are preparing the battlefield for Obama - in essence, they may admit error now so that they can say, "Look, you can trust us. See how we were honest about our dishonesty? All's well now," and then provide cover just as always as the country moves down and to the Left. It's proactive self-defense.

And three, they are hemorrhaging viewership, readership, money, and credibility. With the economy continuing its trend downward (and no signs of reversal once Obama gets in) and alternate media still showing growth, institutional media is desperate for a turnaround. To see more than half the country perpetually pissed off at them for their dishonesty does not bode well for the bottom line. They will have to lie yet again (which obviously won't be a problem for these propagandists) to try and appeal to a larger audience, one they may lose for a generation or more if they don't at least put on act of contrition, however brief and contrived.

Hopefully the rehabilitation project wastes lots of capital, has its actors develop all sorts of career-ending OTJ injuries, has its foundation crumble, slide down the hill into a pit, railcars of salt following behind and burying it, only to be nuked from outer space... just to be sure.

66 Sound familiar? Play along...

X had total power in Y, unrestricted by any constitutional constraints. The headline implied even more, however, than the major change in the constellation of power. It suggested an identity of X and the country he ruled, signifying a complete bond between the Y people and X.

Already before the "takeover of power" it had been the creation of the most modern, hugely successful, political "marketing" strategy of its time, masterminded by Z. And once the monopoly of state control of propaganda fell into their hands, there was no obstacle in the mass media to the rapid spread of X's "charismatic" appeal.

How many fully swallowed the nauseating personality cult can, of course, never be established. Not a few obviously did. Unctuous letters, doggerel poems and other eulogies, photographs and gifts -- including in one case the offer of a sack of potatoes which X apparently liked -- poured in, to be dealt with by X's adjutants.

Sounds sickeningly familiar, doesn't it?

68 The media lost me.  I will never forget their behavior to get Obama over the top. 

Actually, they lost me in 2004 with the 'fake but accurate' memogate story, but I like calling them douchbags and storming away in a huff.  Also, don't forget that Bill Clinton solved the terrible homeless crisis just by being inaugurated.

They have always been biased, and as their market share shrinks they get more and more desperate.  Plus they have to make Obama look as good as possible now, if he's the best Pres. ever then they were justified in their bias weren't they?

72 I think Obama will be an extraordinarily cloistered and inaccessible president, and I think the press will let him get away with it.  Obama is not qualified or experienced enough to be president, which is why he is surrounding himself with so many middle-of-the-road establishment types - to present an aura of competence where there is none.

You've got it.  It's a simple formula: Obama states goals and everybody else will have to state policies.  You see, he "wants to create a bazillion jobs".   His treasury secretary will propose a tax increase.  When the tax increase fails to deliver the jobs, it'll be the secretary's fault for being insufficiently hopeychangey.

If something goes well, it won't be an Obama policy per se.  He won't articulate the policies themselves, just the policy goals.  But his transformativeness will have brought the good results about.

Kinda, his Dad is Mort Halperin, he was trying to broker a coalition government with the NLF/Viet Cong, while our troops were holding them off one the other hand. He resigned joined the lefty group IPS, wrote a book about the American Police State, argued for Phillip Agee to continue to reveal CIA Officers on free speech grounds, while at the ACLU. Opposed the law they tried to get Libby and Cheney with. Was for dismantling the entire intelligence establishment back in the 80s, for the Sandinistas. Snuck into the National Security Council on some peace keeping slot during the Clintons. Was the Vice President of CAP, that Soros think tank credited with 'deconstructing conservative principles. Most of the crap spread about Sarah, either started with CAP or was spread by one of its outlets.

AnonymousD,

  You are my inspiration.  You're the Vinnie fuckin' Falcone of the thread.  Seriously, I'll pass your words along.

  I'd like to add--if anyone believes that we'll see anything like a 1994 rollback in 2010, as long as enough of the public believes that the Congress is still controlled by Republicans; as long as the media cherry-picks Republican scandals and buries Democratic scandals; and as long as the Clinton-Obama perpetual propaganda machine deflects reality, we're in for a potentially long and disastrous regime.  Our big hope in 2010 is to depress off-year turnout among demographics like unions--of course, if unemployment goes as high as many believe, a lot of them will be off on November 2, 2010. 

Maybe we can take back the Congress by 2108.

The problem is that the conservatives have no voice on national television, and we need to fix that.

And when I say that I mean an apologetic press, RIGHT leaning until --- wait for it ---

It's tank time and we say whatever the hell we want...

We are never going to beat that kind of political machine, with "Now, my friends..."

We needed:

"Obama's fatherhood, nationality and religion questioned, film at eleven!", "OMG, I've got a conservative tingle there!" and "Yes, Palin's handler's took her shopping, but why did The 'o' need a 3-million dollar coloseum?", and by the way "Where did 200 million of the campaign money actually come from? We investigate and report!"

We need an actual NATIONAL TV NETWORK, bought and paid for by conservative advertising. This can't be that hard, just expensive.

Conservative talk-radio has BURIED every Demo attempt at radio... The advertisers aren't there. (Just ask Al - 'and by the way, where did THAT money go?' Frankin, ...) And because they can't come up with the bucks, here comes "FAIRNESS". Silence us. But not TV, just radio.

I may be wrong here, but there has never been a truly 'conservative' national television network. And it would negate any attempt at "Fairness". They can't attack radio, without attacking TV anyway.
They have a five 1/2 lead on TV now.

Just my $.02, your mileage may vary. But you need to move now, before 2012.

And CNN.com is continuing with its adolescent obsession with Palin.  They have an online poll about whether Sarah should run for President, stay in Alaska, etc, while they're getting mileage out of the turkey incident (I'm sure Biden will spark some sort of incident with the actual Turkey).

I think we should come up with a neologism:  Palinize -- basically, Borking a prominent female.  It's starting to take shape--McCain was a stooge plant by the Dems to ensure a credible opponent for Obama.  What McCain could do would be to run a rising star on the ticket, who would be subject to the most scurrilous propaganda campaign I've seen in my life.  It's like old-time boxing, the Harder They Fall, where a talented kid was being set up with fixed matches so the champ could bash in his brains.

84 Mike wrote, ' Add libel to the mix and the internet really is serious business.' LOL. Why is it Obama acolytes are so quick to start throwing out vague hints of legal consequences? No, Mike, our Internets are not serious business. You know, I've encountered any number of lolsuit threats whenever I've confronted rampant faggotry in the form of YouTube pedophiles and other assorted sick fucks and fail-trolls online, and had any number of shrieking, butthurt bastards send me cease-and-desist letters from e-lawyers making e-threats and demanding e-satisfaction. As it is, I can write--perfectly freely and legally--that you, for example, are a patronizing piece of shit fail-troll who puts on clothes from his mother's closet and stands for hours and hours preening in front of a mirror, and there isn't a goddamned thing you can do about it. I use my real name online, so I suppose you could take the route others have taken. Good luck with that. But my point is this: Obama and his people have employed 'truth squads' and illegal data searches and smear campaigns to intimidate anyone who questions the One, and I can only speculate what the ramifications for those who speak out will be after his inauguration, but even so, me and those who think and feel as I do give you and yours nothing. You'll have to work for it.

Why did Halperin not print a scathing rebuke well before the election, when it might have made some small difference? And the same for that WaPo ombudsman who did a mea culpa a day or two AFTER the election?

Obviously these are rhetorical questions; from the comments above I'm not guessing anyone here was impressed by the sincerity of the late confessions, or has a shred of belief in these people's credibility.

Evan Thomas of Newsweek made a comment last election about how the media would favor Kerry and how he felt it would help Kerry to the tune of about 15-20 points.

In all seriousness, I wonder if there is a way someone could make a credible assessment of how many percentage points were gained by Obama due to the overall media bias in favor of him. My feel is that the advantage would be huge - think about the 15 to 20 points that Evan Thomas, an expert in the business estimated - and what this means. This is probably the single biggest problem conservatives and Republicans (our de facto representatives) face, and I don't feel most of the leaders really even have their arms wrapped around it. 

A Republican might not have won this election in any case, but normally I think liberalism/leftism would not have much more of a following than the Green Party if the facts were put in front of people objectively, without bias.

Sure, the R Party bigwigs and conservative pundits know it's a problem, but no one has come up with anything remotely resembling a credible and comprehensive strategy to change this state of affairs. Even Rush has the attitude of "Sure, the media is biased, they always will be. Get over it and move on." Sorry, as much as I respect Rush, this won't get it.    

Our side needs a media Manhattan Project. Yesterday.

96 @37:  the insane slant of "news" during this election cycle was justified by the "fact" that Bush and all his policies are evil and Obama is the only one able to deliver the necessary shipment of unicorns to heal the planet.

Years ago I attended the national conference of the Society of Professional Journalists, the professional society for newspaper reporters. One of the breakout sessions was a discussion of:  How politically involved may a reporter be in their own private time? (in their personal, as opposed to professional, life,  mind you--but this was in 1989....)

The conversation got onto how do you guard against personal bias creeping into your reportage. It was interesting. Some people just can't help themselves....

Afterward, I confronted a female reporter about her usage of the term "pro-choice" for one side, their preferred self-description, while refusing to call the other side by their own preferred description, "pro-life." Instead she would refer to them as "anti-abortion" or even "anti-choice."

I will never forget her reply. She said, "Those people opposed to choice are EVIL. It is my moral obligation to present them in as bad a light as possible."

Kathy,

Who was the bitch who said that and who did she work for? Let's OUT the bitch and make her employer defend his employment of a completely biased propagandist for one side. Put her name and employer's name on the street. Let's make her and them pay the price for her political bias.

Make them defend their actions. Then punch them as hard as you can right in the wallet. We're going to bankrupt the New Yuk Times next year. The rest of the corrupt MSM bastards can follow right along.

They want to be paid shills, let them get their money from those they shill for, not ordinary people deceived into thinking they're getting facts instead of opinions.

There's not a person working for the LAT, NYT, or WAPO whose hand I'd shake. They're all liars who deserve to be on the unemployment line and the sooner we put them there, the better.

Posted by: mac at November 23, 2008 03:30 AM (km5b4)

98 The only short-term way around press bias is the Reagan strategy: use the media to communicate directly with the audience--go through the talking heads, ignoring whatever questions and comments these apparatchiks throw out and treating them instead as just the guys holding the cameras and microphones.  Sarah Palin was getting the hang of it, I think, and even given the short amount of time she had and the idiotic constraints imposed upon her by McCain's people, made wonderful headway connecting to viewers and listeners. One thing we can do--and by we I mean you and me and every conservative out there who knows their way around the Internets--is employ this medium more fully: make more videos, network more extensively, and troll those moonbat rat bastards into the fucking ground. Well, okay, I was only speaking for myself on that last one. That's what I'm going to do. You do whatever you want.

102 "It's the most disgusting failure of people in our business...It was extreme bias, extreme pro-Obama coverage."--Did you catch the fib? --"was".

Ah, yes; the obligatory "Where Do We Go To Get Our Testicles Back?"-handwringer. Sorry, kids; you don't. Your new owner at Obama, Inc. auctioned off your integrity to foreign campaign contributors from Eunuchistan--I hear it fetched a hefty $2.00!

But you can all take pride that you were the first to volunteer for unpaid duty in His new Information MinistryCorps. All He asks is that you pick up a new pair of pom-poms and get your cheerleader skirts dry-cleaned in time for the Inaugu-Coronation. At your own expense, naturally.

btw, the reason Obama is picking Clintonistas isn't because of that 'Team of Rivals'-crap or even because he's "young and lacks a coterie of advisors". The reason is because his circle of advisors from Chicago include slumlords, fixers, grifters, communists, terrorists, mobbed-up bankers, hate-speech imams and cop-killers. Some neighborhood.

105 Garandfan, the general public isn't so much gullible as deliberately disinterested, so they'll buy into whatever the media sells because it's easier to say, 'Okay, fine, whatever' and go on about the day to day business of living than it is to stop and think and question. Because once you recognize a problem--in this case a perversion of the whole idea of a free, independent press--then you must take part-ownership of the problem, do something about it with perhaps some cost to yourself. Thus, with hardly a voice raised in protest, our country slides into the soft dictatorship of a personality cult preaching a friendly, Euro-style socialism while employing the ruthless, amoral tactics of a big city political machine. I know how alarmist I sound, but I don't think many realize the magnitude of the disaster coming our way. Our press has been subverted. Leadership of the Democratic Party has been suborned by its most far-left fringe elements. These people intend to rule, not govern, will never willingly give up power. Thanks to an enthusiastically compliant media and a whole army of pro-Obama bureaucrats and party hacks, national elections will be rigged and opposition faces and voices will be stifled, ignored and intimidated.

Think I'll go smoke a cigarette. It's cold in the garage and I've been trying to quit, but suddenly I don't give a damn.
