Rather than use Senator Barack Obama’s nomination as an opportunity to discuss his record, the coverage of the event was nothing more than cheer leading. No substance, no information to be found on any network.
Note that the media did not respond when Clarence Thomas was nominated to the highest court in America; or when Colin Powell was appointed Secretary of State; or when Condi Rice was appointed Secretary of State; or when J.C. Watts was elected; or when Michael Steele ran for governor; or when Lynn Swann ran for governor.
Why? Those men and women were black but they were conservative.
