The major/elite news media is sooooo obvious at this point, but the question is how much of the public is aware of the slant? Part of it's that, but to be fair, they also feel they ought to balance good news with bad. If the post I recently put up about coming employment figures is correct, we are going to have an extremely strong economic picture by election time. They will have a tough time with a "bad news tonight" approach. On top of that, we really overestimate how "joe sixpack" reacts to network news on economics. Most people go on how they and their friends and family are doing. I had an Aunt whose family did real well under Hoover and almost went under when Roosevelt got in. Loved Hoover and blamed Roosevelt.
