Bronstein at Large : Love or lust, Obama and the fawning press need to get a room

And according to a new Pew Research Center poll, we are behaving…like fans. On domestic press, it showed that “President Barack Obama has enjoyed substantially more positive media coverage than either Bill Clinton or George W. Bush during their first months in the White House” with “roughly twice as much” Obama coverage about his “personal or leadership qualities” than was the case for either previous president.

This is a fairly telling admission from the former editor of the SF Chron that the media has been sucking Obama’s…approval.

Even more interesting is the response in comments: The anti-Bush and pro-Obama comments are being heavily voted down. And this is in San Francisco, which voted 108%-0 for Obama.
