Is the Main Stream Press in Bed with the Obama Administration?

 At times we must all wonder how the main stream press decides what to print or cover and what not. It always seems that positive Obama administration events get great press while the ongoing scandals get little or no mention. John Nolte a reporter for Breitbart News investigated this issue and came up with the following interesting connections between members of the press and their relationships with major players within the Obama administration.

Virginia Moseley is a CNN Vice President and Washington Bureau Chief married to Tom Nides, a Deputy Secretary of State under Barack Obama.

What is especially interesting is that three of the White House officials listed here, who are related in some way to mainstream media big shots, have ties to the Benghazi scandal. Tom Nides is at State, Ben Rhoades was part of the talking point debacle, and Jay Carney spent over a week repeatedly making false claims about terrorists not being behind the September 11th anniversary attack on our diplomatic outpost.  

This might help to explain why the media spent the better part of a month in the run up to the election blasting Mitt Romney for his comments on Benghazi as opposed to the Obama Administration for their bungling and lying about Benghazi.”
