McCain: Media Fawns Over Obama

Item: McCain montage focuses on media bias: Video says news coverage unfairly fawns over Obama/Los Angeles Times

More Info: After months of frustration about what it sees as fawning media coverage of Barack Obama, John McCain's campaign went on offense Tuesday with a Web video called "The media is in LOVE with Barack." The montage, which features news anchors and correspondents discussing "Obamamania" as Frankie Valli's "Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You" plays, was sent to supporters to raise campaign donations in a week when McCain has been largely overshadowed by coverage of Obama's overseas trip.

Question: Do the media favor U.S. Sen. Barack Obama over U.S. Sen. John McCain?
