    How long before the media sharks start attacking Obama?

    We know it's coming. Regardless of how you feel about the new president (and everybody here knows how much I hate the guy), the fact remains that we'll be in the honeymoon period for a few months at least. Everything will be just peachy with the soccer moms, facebookers, and college professors everywhere.

    But after the novelty of "change" has worn off, how long do you think it'll take before the media starts after this guy? Granted, studies have shown that the media is much more tolerant of liberal politicians, but remember that there was almost unanimous support in the popular press for George Bush after both his election and reelection.

    I'm placing my bets on two months from now, unless some long-buried skeleton in ol' Biraq's closet comes out soon.

    Really, I think some of them have already started...
    But, I think the serious attacks will come as soon as he actually does something, or takes action over something in one way or another.
    For instance, he says he'll start pulling the troops out of Iraq in July. So, if that is the first thing he does after inauguration, then that will be what the media sharks attack him for.

    If George Bush left the White House with just a 20% approval rating, I doubt the media would WANT to attack Obama. He said he'd bring change, after all.
    Left.

    Hmmm.... I'm not sure it will happen. I'm sure a few will, but I have a hard time seeing this because Obama is the media God. They love him. I suppose if they can't find anything else to destroy, they might cook up a story for him.
    All I can say is Welcome to the Socialist States of America.

    I'm guessing within two months. No matter how many good or bad moves there are, the media is simply out there to make money, report the info yeah, but money, yes. They will always find something to critisize on, as would anyone else.

    Yes, even if there isn't something bad with obama, the media would invent something bad...
    Edit:
    BTW, which person voted: "Never! Praise our Beloved Leader, for it is he who makes the sun shine!" ?
