8. Obama's address at the UN was covered live by most of the media.

I know because I watched it. And I believe I saw a highlight reel of him signing the small biz legislation into law.

The difference is that these things are covered in a limited way. They're shown live with a few follow ups, at best.

Compare this to the way the media covered bush. They would cover campaign stops as if they were policy stops. Bush seemed to be on TV 24/7, while Obama gets more limited coverage.

On edit: Rachel is starting to annoy me. Not because of any message or position she's taken, but due to her presentation. She's repeating her points more times than Robert de Niro repeats lines of dialogue. The story you reference is a case in point. I guess she's decided we're all dim-witted and need things driven into our brains through repetition to get the point.

I drift away from her show when she goes into that mode, just like I drift away from KO's show when he gets off on some tangent.
