Joshua Marshall at TPM, while not overtly coming out as an Obama supporter, has been using sleazy tactics at his media outlets to manipulate public opinion against Hillary Clinton. This is, in a word, dishonest. (Maybe he's afraid he'll lose readership if he comes out and admits it, but that's hardly an excuse.)
Read the compilation of links in the sentence below, which I extracted from this post.
Josh Marshall in particular will surely be able to help quite a bit.
Here's the second one, for example (it's very short), by Big Tent Democrat at Talk Left:
TPM Comes Clean: Accepts Its Partisan Obama Site Status
This post proves it. Doing a mashup attack video used to be something reserved for Republicans from Josh Marshall's Talking Points Memo. By doing an attack video on Hillary Clinton, TPM demonstrates that not only has it become an Obama site, it is one of the most virulent and unfair of such sites. The honesty is good. After all, like Nancy Pelosi, we all knew this. What was lacking was the candor to admit it. With his latest tactics, Marshall has ostensibly admitted what we all knew anyway. Pelosi should follow suit.
Now if only NBC will admit the same.
