Obama: I handled the Russian hacks properly. Its the media that didnt.

19. Hate to say it, but Obama is right

Hillary's a Democrat, Obama's a Democrat. It's not like his preferences weren't public knowledge.

But the media played this election as if it were cable entertainment, subsisting on money from commercials as opposed to a responsibility to inform. What they did NOT do is report the election campaign as if the future of the world depended on the country being as fully informed as it needed to be.

Now we all reap the reward of their refusal to do their jobs. The Fourth Estate is a poor shadow of themselves when a TV show like "The Newsroom" is populated by better journalists than the real ones. But then, again, the White House of "The West Wing" was a better place than the Cheneybush White House, and the Trumppence White House is looking to turn into everything it was never intended to be.
