Blagojevich's show is his own

Steve Bennen knocks down the mainstream media's pursuit of the non-story of Obama and the "scandal ... threatening to dog him".

Writes Bennen,

Is Obama connected to Blagojevich's scandal? No, but the scandal is 'threatening to dog him.' Has Obama done anything wrong? No, but Republicans are going to 'try to link him to the scandal.'

Well, yes, of course they are. That's what political opponents do. We're supposed to have an independent, professional press that helps the public cut through the nonsense and explain why baseless attacks are wrong. Instead, we get an 'analysis' piece like this one.
