Michael Calderone is reporting at Politico:
Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell was supposed to give “closing remarks” during this afternoon’s Shorenstein Center-sponsored panel discussion with all three Sunday show moderators — NBC’s Tom Brokaw, ABC’s George Stephanopoulous and CBS’s Bob Schieffer — but instead, he opened up a can of worms about bias in 2008 election coverage[.]
Ruh-roh.
“MSNBC was the official network of the Obama campaign,” Rendell said, who called their coverage “absolutely embarrassing.”
Chris Matthews, Rendell said, “loses his impartiality when he talks about the Clintons.”
At that point, PBS’s Judy Woodruff, who was moderating the moderators event, said: “Why don’t we let Governor Rendell sit down.”
That was met with applause from the crowd of big-time media figures, which included Arianna Huffington, Gwen Ifill, Al Hunt, and Chuck Todd.
You don’t have to say that MSNBC’s primaries coverage of Hillary was sexist to say that the obvious infatuation they had —and still have— for Obama constitutes real assistance to him. That’s not assistance that Hillary was often offered past, let’s say, the Texas and Ohio contests. The quasi-homosexual fussing over this unqualified liar from the TUCC by Matthews and Olbermann is notoriously unhidden. Good on Ed for pointing it out right there in the midst of the whole smelly lot of them.
