McCain doesn't have a leg to stand on regarding criticism of "media boycotts"

Tweet

After the Obama people made the perfectly-justified decision not to give anymore air time to nonsense 'reporters' like Barbara West: "John McCain is now whining to Fox News' Sean Hannity about the Obama campaign's media "boycotts." McCain said, "[.I]f anybody in the media, much less Joe the Plumber asks a tough question, then they're boycotted. They pull their ads, etc." I sincerely wonder about McCain's grip on reality sometimes. Amanda Terkel noted the irony of McCain's latest complaints. * McCain canceled an appearance on CNN's Larry King Live after CNN's Campbell Brown conducted a tough interview with McCain spokesman Tucker Bounds about Palin's foreign policy experience. * Last month, the McCain campaign barred New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd from flying on both the McCain and Palin press planes after she wrote a negative column. * McCain campaign officials barred Time's Joe Klein from traveling with them, after he asked McCain an uncomfortable question about foreign policy. * Campaign officials have repeatedly gone on air to bash journalists after tough interviews, saying that Katie Couric asked Palin "a series of trapdoor questions," the New York Times "cast aside it's journalistic integrity to advocate for the defeat of John McCain," and demanded that the media treat Palin with "deference."" -- http://www.washingtonmonthly.com/archives/individual/2008_10/015430.php Is there no end to this campaign's hypocrisy? Isn't there ANYTHING they criticize Obama for that they themselves aren't more guilty of?
