Politico wonders: Has Obama’s media strategy made government more powerful? According to Politico, it’s not because journ0lists are liberals or anything, but because “Obama is a master at limiting, shaping and manipulating media coverage of himself and his White House.” Yeah, we’re sure that having a media so anxioius to be limited, shaped and manipulated has nothing to do with it.

Throughout history, cult leaders have been able to brainwash gullible idiots. Case in point. Politico is too stupid to realize what happened. Not surprising.

Obama doesn't have a media strategy, Obama doesn't need a media strategy, the media is his willing accomplice and biggest cheerleader. Talking about Obama's "media strategy" is just the MSM's way of deflecting the public's criticism of media bias.
