Tired of Obama Coverage, and Hungry for More

Maybe John Edwards was right about there being two Americas. In one America, the people complain that they've heard all they want to from the media about this Barack Obama character, thank you very much. In the other America, they turn a shoddily-researched attack book about Obama into a No. 1 best-seller.

Or are these trends one and the same? Are Americans only fed up with the mainstream media because it hasn't yet given them an excuse to hate someone they've already made up their minds about?. □
