I don't know enough about how the media works to understand this, but yesterday a story hit where a Clinton campaign co-chair and super-delegate said quite emphatically that she would lose.
Why hasn't the media got statements from the Clinton campaign? Will Cleaver be dropped from the Clinton team? Why haven't reporters got Obama's people to comment on it? Why hasn't anyone tracked down Rev. Cleaver and asked him to explain why he made his comments, given his prominence in the Clinton campaign? It seems like Fox News may have gotten a follow-up interview, but it's hard to tell, since they've chopped the statements up to serve their propaganda purposes.
Maybe someone who knows more about how the media operates can answer this. My experiences with it in the last few days seem to indicate that it is a strange beast indeed.
