DUmmy Pedro Picasso, having completed his day's assignment of blank speech bubbles by 8:13 a.m., contemplates the news media.
It would really be boring to be Pedro:

Was it the despicable liberal media elites who protected Bush?
Just curious where the despicable liberal media elites were when Bush's Texas ANG, or his cocaine use, or his DUIs, were being buried. Who buried them if the media is all elite liberals? And who pushed the John Kerry swift boat story? Do we even need to mention Bill Clinton?
Those elite media liberals sure are crafty...they always seem to protect the GOP and attack liberals. BRILLIANT!
http://www.democraticunderground.com/1002190861 Well, Pedro, they tried. They pushed the allegations against President Bush in every way they could, including their bellwether propaganda vehicle, "60 Minutes".
Problem is, as time went on, it became obvious to normal people that the allegations were false, and the results were two election victories for W, and the Great Bush Prosperity that most normal people enjoyed for eight years.
Conversely, the media tried their best to discredit the Swiftboat heroes in every way possible. They were slandered and smeared continuously for two or three months.
Problem is, as time went on, it became obvious to normal people that the Swiftboat allegations were true, that John F'n had lied non-stop about his military record, had probably concealed a dishonorable discharge, and was guilty of behavior that at least bordered on treason.
Poor Pedro! Too stupid to understand what became obvious to people of normal intelligence.
