The New York Times:

On Debates, Obama Backs 3 With McCain

The Associated Press:

Obama backs away from McCain's debate challenge

Which news source do you think has a Washington Bureau Chief who is close enough to the McCain campaign to have been offered a job?

Could it be the same Ron Fournier who writes an article framing Obama as arrogant and sends Karl Rove an email telling him to "keep up the fight?"

So the next time someone tells you the mainstream media is in the tank for Obama, tell them about the AP serving John McCain his favorite donuts while likening Obama to a terrorist. Tell them about the AP's Ron Fournier calling Obama an elitist and dropping negative rumors into supposed journalistic articles.

Tell them about the AP smearing Obama on his official agreement, in advance of McCain, to the Presidential debates.
