The US media was 100% pro-Bush in the aftermath of 9/11 because it made them money... They were anti-Bush once people got tired of the war in Iraq because it made them money... They're pro-Obama now because it makes them money... They'd eat your children if it would make them money - JUST LIKE ANY OTHER MAJOR CORPORATION IN AMERICA (after all - corporations don't become "major" without stepping on a few toes...)
This ain't news - it's been going on forever (sounds more like sour grapes to me...)

Just a question?
Is the Media just a corporation which is out to make money, and doesn't really have to report truth?
If it is, then would it be unheard of for the big business of Pro Sports to "manipulate" games in a way that would make them more money?
