McCain’s Ink Envy
John McCain has often been described as a media darling, but that was before Mr. Straight Talk had to run against a political phenomenon. The Arizona senator was already frustrated by his drooping media prestige, but the wall-to-wall coverage of Barack Obama's international tour, which was kind of McCain's idea, has him seeing red.

Rooted in Truth.The Guardian:
The Republican presidential hopeful John McCain let his frustration with the US media boil over today for its saturation coverage of Barack Obama’s visit to the Middle East and Europe.
McCain, upset over the extent to which his campaign has been eclipsed, launched a new video on the internet titled Obama Love, with quotes from television anchors and other journalists that he regards as evidence of bias.
The launch of the video came the day after McCain protested over what he saw as another sign of bias, a rejection of a comment article on Iraq he submitted to the New York Times.
