Instead of an Intelligent Story About the Subject, I got a Dittohead. 2010-08-23

Reviewer: R. Frizzle

It is plain to me that the media fawned over Obama, and threw the nomination to him. Even Saturday Night Live -- hardly a bastion of John Birchers and Republicans -- made light of this in at least one skit. I was interested to learn insider informations and a good analysis of what happened. What caused journalists to let their leftist passions to win out over the constraints of professionalism, fairness, and anti-bias?

I paid my money, but I still want to know because this book couldn't answer the question.

I will admit that I was having a lot of trouble with the text because it seemed to have a lot of bias in it. It had a "Fox News" feel to it. Then Goldberg tried name-dropping, and mentioned his "friend Rush Limbaugh."

Ahhhhhhhh! Limbaugh is not a legitimate journalist; and his matriculation at The Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies notwithstanding, he is not a scholar.


Game over, man. Game over.

I guess I am being just like Congress and the dumbocrats. Giving it a passing grade before I READ IT. Or from Pelosi's own mouth " we have to pass it before we can read it." What?
Penetrating reporting about the lack of reporting by the media during the recent Presidential election. Craig you are 100% correct.

Reviewer: Kira S. Yoshimura

The author makes valid claims about the media and Obama, however they are clearly biased. From a liberal perspective, his arguments would be completely wrong. All of his claims are subjective, so it's hard to say whether or not they are all truly valid. He presents good facts, plenty of statistics and quotes, and never contradicts himself. Goldberg stays consistent and steadfast about his political views and values throughout the book. It is logically written, the succession of chapters makes sense, and there is evidence presented almost immediately after every argument made. I don't agree with many of his claims because I have a more liberal view of politics, but some of his arguments can't be disputed with because the evidence he uses clearly supports them.

Excellent, entertaining, timely book. Should be read by everyone especially liberals, those poor misguided souls.

Disappointment 2010-04-05

Reviewer: R. Corless

Goldberg promises a thorough exposure of the media romance with Obama, but it's a thin book if you leave out his own opinions and explanations. There are many factual observations in support of his premise--the case makes itself. But I would have preferred to have much more quotes, research statistics and such. The case is easy to make, why not provide more of the proofs, and less Goldberg tutorials.
