| Publisher Description: 71 DAYS blasts the corporate media as it covers the 2008 run for the presidency, from the first day of the Democratic National Convention through Election Day. Michael Jason Overstreet expected bias in newspaper, television, and Internet coverage of Barack Obama, and he found what he was looking for. For those who have bought the myth that there exists a liberal media bias, get ready to have your preconceptions explored, then exploded. Written as a daily chronicle of news coverage of all four candidates, this book calls to mind the ups and downs of the General Election and posits the real reason why Obama took the lead, despite unfair media coverage, and never looked back in his run to become the first black President of the United States of America. |
