Media Bashing

Commentator David Brooks has some thoughts about Republican presidential candidate Bob Dole's media bashing -- he thinks there is validity to Mr. Dole's claims that the media is liberal. A recent poll from the Roper Center found that 89% of national reporters voted for Bill Clinton in 1992. However, Brooks doesn't think that a liberal press corps kills a Republican campaign...obsessing about it does.
