And now they say we hardly know him?
Topics:Where was CNN during the election campaign? Judging by their now warning Americans that we hardly know who Barack Obama is and that it may not be such a good ideo to call him a "hero," one would think that they'd been on another planet during the campaign since they and MSNBC were chief among those who set Obama up as a hero and messiah and were responsible for perpetuating Obama's lies and hiding the truth about the problems with his judgement, associations, and background.
Via NewsBusters:
CNN is warning Americans that already making Barack Obama into one of America's greatest "heroes" may not be a good idea. Despite the fact that Barack Obama has yet to take office, despite that he has yet to really do anything to earn that status, CNN is saying that "already, he's being compared to the most remarkable leaders."
It might make one amazed that now, after cheerleading for him for the last four years, CNN suddenly finds that calling Obama a hero is not necessarily the best idea. "The Americans who are comparing him to those remarkable predecessors," CNN warns, "are putting a lot of faith in a man they barely know."
And why do we "barely know" Barack Obama, CNN? Is it perhaps because the American media never took the time to vet this man? Is it because all we've gotten is hero worship from the media? (emphasis mine)
