The Media is is being used to promote all of the current canidates. Everytime they report on any of them they are giving them free advertising.
However this is not a conspiracy. News agencies will report on whatever they think the American people are most interested in. Always remember the "Media" is a conglomerate of private companies each competing to sell advertising time. The more interesting their stories are, the more listeners they will have, the more listeners they have, the more they can charge for advertising time.
Plain and simple.
Of course there may be managers/producers who (even despite their own efforts to be non-partial) will tend to put a positive spin on the canidate of their preference, and a negative spin on the others. Like it or not this is human nature. In order to be considered a credible news source they must at least appear to maintain non-partialism, so they can't out right endorse a canidate.
It is also good to keep in mind, that in an effort to remain non-partial, they will puposley report both positive and negative news about each canidate. When you hear negative news about a canidate you like, your natural reaction is to question the news source -- if you hear it from enough news outlets you may even wonder if there is a conspiracy.
In the end I don't think there is an organized conspiracy, however I do think that it is apparant that the major news outlets tend to employ more liberal employee's than conservative, which explains why they are often accused of being "liberal".

Fox News is part of the media. In fact, Republican supporter Rupert Murdoch owns media outlets reaching 75% of the world's news audience.
Are you suggesting that Fox News is promoting Barack Obama?

Wait a sec. You advise if Congress provides the administrative huge power to look into on individuals, it will use it? Benghazi is a witch hunt being devised from a tragedy. that's Republicans searching for political danger. The AP surveillance is one hundred% criminal because of the fact congress handed a regulation asserting that's below our final president. The IRS project, is a localized journey in Cincinnati, which befell and replaced into got here upon final 12 months. The operative replaced into released. The president had no longer something to do with any of this. i detect the AP tale traumatic, whether that's definitely criminal. i detect the IRS project troubling, whether it replaced into dealt with some distance far flung from presidential word. loosen up. i'm specific you will locate yet another vivid merchandise to distract you quickly.

Media is the best medium to promote a candidate like Barack Obama because it is accessible to all walks of life.
VOTE for your choice as US President on my 360 degrees blog and know if Obama will likely win.

Remember the 2000 election? The debates, specifically? The night that Gov. Bush's abysmal record as Gov. of Texas came up, the "press" could not stop reporting that Vice President Gore had sighed. As if that meant anything. Get this straight--the "news media" is owned by Republicans. All it ever gives you is pro-Republican hind end kissing, they lie for their masters. The "press" and its pro-Republican lies are why the country is in the horrible war it is now, and bankrupt, owing a trillion dollars to Communist China. Thank them. THAT was a conspiracy.

Don't all politicans use the media to be promoted? I guess it would be a conspiracy if you buy into the bias in media argument.

Yes and they are underpromoting Ron Paul. Ron Paul is the best candidate to come up in years. Seriously if everyone knew who he was he would be president for sure. If you wanna look him up go to ronpaul2008.com and click on issues for his opinions on the major issues facing the U.S. There is no way you can disagree with anything he says. Vote Ron Paul in 2008.
