Romney v. The Media
January 2, 2008 • By Richelieu

In every presidential primary the elite political press corps picks one candidate to thoroughly (and rather unfairly) despise. What triggers this is hard to calculate, but the usual ingredients are strong funding, perceived pandering, and a conservative stance on most social issues. Think Phil Gramm in 1995. Today the candidate the media love to despise is Mitt Romney. It will be interesting to see how the media will cover the story if Romney indeed beats Huckabee tomorrow night in Iowa. Will they (honestly) report an impressive comeback win, or will the snarky and contemptuous tone of most Romney coverage continue?
