This week’s Mainstream Media Scream features the New Yorker’s David Remnick, author of the lengthy interview with President Obama, hailing the president’s “huge” achievements during an interview with Charlie Rose on PBS. He also credits Obama with a scandal-free administration, shrugging off Benghazi, the IRS and National Security Administration snooping affairs, and Obamacare‘s troubles.
REMNICK: Yes.
Media Research Center Vice President of Research Brent Baker explains our pick: “To think it was in the very interview with Remnick that Obama had the chutzpah to complain about how Fox News and Rush Limbaugh were undermining his wonderful policies. Remnick’s genuflection before Obama’s greatness demonstrates, for the umpteenth time, that the mainstream media are in the tank for Obama, itching for opportunities to trumpet his fantastic accomplishments.”
Rating: Four out of five screams.
