Even worse, this time they went beyond media bias to media activism, says CBS veteran and #1 bestselling author Bernard Goldberg. In his most provocative book yet, A Slobbering Love Affair, Goldberg shows how the mainstream media's hopelessly one-sided coverage of President Obama has shredded America's trust in journalism and endangered our free society. Highlighting the media's laughable coverage and shameless hypocrisy, Goldberg exposes how liberal reporters ignored important issues, focused on trivial matters, and attacked those who dared to question ""The One."" Goldberg also argues that the media's blatant disregard for their traditional role as the fourth estate and government watchdog has endangered America and eroded the notion of a free and fair press. With his trademark blunt talk and his insider's perspective, Goldberg reveals: * How the media ignored, downplayed, or sanitized Obama's relationships with Rev. Wright and Bill Ayers * How the media viciously attacked Sarah Palin for irrelevant issues like her wardrobe, but coddled Obama on anything and everything * Why Obama's election will make it more likely conservative talk radio-and conservative books-will be stifled by a new ""Fairness Doctrine"" that is anything but fair * How Obama's supposedly ""post-partisan"" campaign kicked reporters off Obama's plane after their newspapers endorsed McCain * BONUS: an exclusive interview with Rush Limbaugh on the unholy alliance between Obama and the mainstream media A blistering takedown of the media's slavish support for Obama, A Slobbering Love Affair shows how the mainstream media has not only surrendered its integrity and objectivity, but could even endanger our democracy." 6187229 25 1 2009 A Slobbering Love Affair: The True (And Pathetic) Story of the Torrid Romance Between Barack Obama and the Mainstream Media total:133|5:33|4:52|3:36|2:11|1:1| 133 504 238 68 5 5 false false Sun Feb 01 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Sun Mar 01 18:20:44 -0800 2009 Wed Mar 04 18:03:37 -0800 2009 more...]]> 3 1 false false Sat Feb 14 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Mon Feb 16 05:16:07 -0800 2009 Mon Feb 16 05:40:14 -0800 2009 more...]]> 4 1 false false Sat Mar 07 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Mon Feb 23 11:53:34 -0800 2009 Sun Mar 15 17:07:59 -0700 2009 more...]]> 4 2 false false Wed Jan 28 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Thu Jan 29 23:41:41 -0800 2009 Thu Jan 29 23:46:35 -0800 2009 more...]]> 0 2 false false Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Sun Feb 15 16:48:53 -0800 2009 Tue Feb 17 16:17:54 -0800 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Thu Mar 26 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Thu Mar 26 07:22:56 -0700 2009 Thu Mar 26 07:23:38 -0700 2009
