Letters to the Editor

Joan, thank you
I really appreciate your commentary. I was beginning to wonder if Craig Crawford was going to be the lone voice crying in the wilderness about the anti-Clinton bias in the media.
Craig was the first one to mention--in Morning Joe--that it was the media who introduced the 'race card' into the campaign. I saw it myself. It happened when Hillary won and the pundits kept scratching their heads and wondering why were they wrong. Then, voila! one of geniuses pulled the rabbit out of the hat: the Bradley effect: people lie to pollsters about votic for a black candidate.
The media want mud wrestling, they don't want candidates discussing the issues. Too boring. Not good for the ratings.
Again, thanks for pointing out that Obama may be hurt by media adoration. It's beginning to happen.
Please let us know when you are going to be in MSNBC, otherwise I will not tune in.
