ABC
Scolds Globe-Trotting McCain as People Suffer at Home
 Good Morning America on Wednesday attempted to guilt trip John McCain
for taking a foreign trip: “As Americans wrestle with a tough economy,
why is he in South America?" Five times over the course of two segments,
various GMA hosts, reporters and analysts insinuated that McCain's trip
to Colombia and Mexico might result in voters thinking he doesn't care
about the economic situation of Americans.

Bozell's News Column
Who Dares Oppose the Obamas?
In the thick
of the fight over the wrong Reverend Wright, Barack Obama put on his
annoyed face and said the whole issue of his preacher’s hate speech
was a distraction from the real issues, like health care and
education and war. So many in the media were quick to agree. But now
that the primaries are over, the network news crews aren’t covering
the issues. They’re warbling a happy tune about all of Barack and
Michelle Obama’s wonderful personal qualities.

Worst of the Week
Robin Roberts Hails Priest, Skips America-Rapes Sermon
 ABC
Good Morning America co-host Robin Roberts interviewed Father Michael
Pfleger, a close friend of Barack Obama’s longtime minister, Jeremiah
Wright, and mourned how race was still a “hot-button” issue in 2008. But
Roberts utterly ignored how the “maverick priest” sermonized at Obama’s
former church that blacks should cling to bitterness about how “America
has been raping people of color and America has to pay the price for the
rape!”

Notable Quotables
Oh, Now She Sees Bias
 After
Hillary Clinton loses the Democratic nomination, CBS anchor Katie Couric
blasts the media: "Senator Clinton received some of the most unfair,
hostile coverage I've ever seen." Meanwhile, NBC News President Steve
Capus tells a magazine that he admires how MSNBC's loopy left-wing host
Keith Olbermann "speaks truth to power;" CNN's Campbell Brown touts Al
Gore for Vice President; and ex-ABC and CBS correspondent Linda
Douglass, now a spokeswoman for Barack Obama, reveals how she knew her
left-wing views weren't corrupting her journalism: "It was no secret to
reporters around me that I have Democratic-leaning views. But they said
I was always fair."

2008 DisHonors Awards
 At a celebrity-studded gala held in Washington, D.C. April 10, the MRC
presented its
"2008 DisHonors Awards: Roasting the Most
Outrageously Biased Liberal
Reporters of 2007." Conservative luminaries including Cal Thomas, Mark
Levin, Ann Coulter and Larry Kudlow highlighted the presentations and
acceptances; MSNBC's Chris Matthews "won" Quote of the Year for his giddy
reaction to Bill Clinton speaking: "There are times when he sounds like
Jesus in the Temple." Following the awards ceremony, MRC President Brent
Bozell presented Tony Snow with the MRC’s second annual
"William F. Buckley Jr. Award for Media Excellence." The evening ended
with a
video tribute to the late Navy Lt. Michael Murphy, who was posthumously
awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor for selfless valor in combat in
Afghanistan in 2005.
