From Instapundit:

RASMUSSEN: “The belief that reporters are trying to help Barack Obama win the fall campaign has grown by five percentage points over the past month.” Gee, do you think? Plus this: “A separate survey released this morning also found that 50% of voters believe most reporters want to make the economy seem worse than it is. A plurality believes that the media has also tried to make the war in Iraq appear worse that it really is.”

And newspapers wonder why they are losing influence and readers. Yesterday the LA Times featured a frontpage story headlined:

“Iraqi president embraces Obama’s withdrawal plan”

That makes Obama seem to be right about Iraq.

But wait, that was not what Maliki said or meant. Did the LAT correct the bungled story today? No.
