[1]Journalists from three major newspapers that endorsed John McCain [2] — the Washington Times, the New York Post and the Dallas Morning News — have been booted from Barack Obama [3]’s campaign [4] plane for the final leg of the presidential race.
The Washington [5] Times reported Friday that it was notified of the Obama [3] campaign [4]’s decision Thursday evening — even though the paper has covered Obama [3] from the start.
That from Fox, today [6]. However you look at this, and the WFTV and KYW incidents and a half dozen others we’ve mentioned on BitsBlog [7], it’s clear Obama [3] cannot deal with any opposition.
It’s as the executive editor of the Washington [5] times suggested:
I [8] can only hope that the candidate [9] who describes himself as wanting to unite the nation doesn’t have some sort of litmus test for who he decides gets to cover the campaign [4]
Clearly, a vain hope.
Like what you see, America?
