We began with sixteen of the most overtly biased journalists towards Illinois Democratic Senator and Presidential nominee Barack Obama.
You, the media's biggest fans, watched the videos and read the excerpts and cast your ballots for your selections.
First for the Enamored Eight, then the Infatuated Four and the Dynamic Biased Duo.
And now the moment has arrived, when we announce your choice as the Media's Most Valuable Partisan (MVP), the most pro-Obama reporter of them all.
And that alleged journalist is....

| Was There Ever Really Any Doubt? |
Yes, I know this will come as a galloping shock to one and nearly all, but that was how this particular media bias cookie crumbled.
So turn out the leg lamp, the party's over. Unless today's other vote turns up roses for the press's Most Beloved, in which case we will have to redo this contest on a fortnightly basis for the next four years.
Reconstituted as the Sweet-On-Obama Sixteen Thousand. At least.

Chrissy Matthews, the new
November 4, 2008 - 14:05 ET by semolina_filcherChrissy Matthews, the new Obama Admonish-tration Press Secretary. And Keith (Ubercon the troll) Olbermann, the new WH Director of Communist-cation.
God help us all!
Oh, Matthews won't like
November 4, 2008 - 14:07 ET by MikeknaJOh, Matthews won't like that. He also won't like the little bumper segment on last night's SNL special, where "he" said he sometimes pleasured himself while watching Obama speeches. Ouch.
How in the heck did Olbermann not win this thing??
Matthews has been in the tank for Obama, but at least he can attempt to play it straight every once in awhile. Olbermann doesn't even know the meaning of the word, nor does he even ever remotely try.
"Look, when Keith anchors, he plays it straight down the line.”

I feel a tingling....
November 4, 2008 - 14:10 ET by sawing battarunning up my leg....but this time, it's the long arm of the IRS coming after my wallet. Hey, Peggy the Plumber needs to get Paaaaid, baby.
I have a vision of Snoop Dog at the Inaugural chanting the following with his Presidential pimp chalice overflowing with tax payer funded Cristal....
"Take Money-money, take money, money, money, money"
I, too, feel a tingling....
November 4, 2008 - 16:22 ET by DoktorFranken. . . . running up my leg. But it's caused by the numbness of poor circulation because of a clot. 0bama is Matthew's clot. It will soon travel to his brain and then . . . . 'Scanners' time.
I voted for Chrissy. He is the epitome of the MSM today. Olbermann is just a whack job for the wacko Left who need his type of show. Germans in the 1930's went through the same experience. Olbermann is providing a service for 0bama in his own wacko way. 0bama says the same thing but just a wee bit less boisterous.
Congratulations, Chrissy! Your efforts brought you this unique distinction to add to your already dubious accomplishments.
sorry yall
November 4, 2008 - 14:10 ET by candanceBut the "warm glow of hope" was always my personal favorite. It had that old school, mancrush on Gorby feel to it. That's the MSM I will always know and love.

Please tell us NB is
November 4, 2008 - 14:14 ET by SickofLibsPlease tell us NB is actually going to send him a Leg Lamp Trophy complete with engraved nameplate!
No Affect
November 4, 2008 - 14:26 ET by rammingspeedPrissie Chrissie couldn't care less what NB or anyone else who disagrees with him says. That's why he will always be an idiot, a rope-a-doped stooge who fronts for extremists. But he went too far, along with Keith Olbermann, and is on his way down the same toilet as Olbermann. He helped sell Obama, but the crafty left wing extremists will marginalize him after the election. They have to; he'll end up doing real damage to their cause, the way a 2-year-old can sooner or later be counted on to have a hissy fit in front of company.
Can we throw in a free
November 4, 2008 - 14:34 ET by bschoomCan we throw in a free tattoo of the S-o-O design for Chris as well ?
I think he'd like it right on the small of his back, but really anywhere is appropriate for him.

Never any doubt
November 4, 2008 - 15:19 ET by EurikaCongratulations Mr Matthews.
Matthews Tingle
November 4, 2008 - 15:27 ET by JanettaI predicted Matthews before I clicked on the answer. I NEVER watch MSNBC, but if McCain wins as I believe he will, I might switch from Fox To MSNBC just for a few minutes to experience how a heart attack looks on Little Chrissy. They will have to take him off air on a stretcher!!!! HAPPY DAY!
McCain/Palin '08

November 4, 2008 - 16:26 ET by TN MomSeton,
Chrissy Matthews STOLE this award from Tom Brokaw...Tom deserved to win as he has worked so hard promoting NBC's bias for Obama! hehehe!!
I DEMAND A RECOUNT!
MCCAIN/PALIN
COUNTRY FIRST!!

November 4, 2008 - 22:06 ET by livingfreeIt had to be Matthews crowned the winner. Everyone knows he is the biggest puke of them all. Curic is second puke. I hope they rot in hell.
I JUST HOPE
November 4, 2008 - 16:59 ET by MillerTimeWarpthat when the $hit hits the fan, years from now about how Obama's secret life, his hidden agendas, his sordid friends, the crumbling economy from all of us being forced to share our "wealth", THOSE in the media should be forced to watched reruns of their worshipping and pandering that went on for the past year.
My son asked about socialsim....I said its if....
You have all A's and B's on you report card and Obama says you have to give up some of them to give to the "less fortunate" students that never showed up for class, or even studied - so they can get a B instead of an F.
I would rather be a Conservative nut job, than a Liberal with no nuts and no job
He'll be...
November 4, 2008 - 17:33 ET by retroconHe'll be Obama's Priss Secretary...
Sorry, Press Sucra-teary...
I mean shaky-leg press, suckup brown nosing, teary eyed whatever...
nevermind, this all has me stressed out.
Olbermann should be the winner
November 4, 2008 - 18:10 ET by Parker1227Olbermann sells out journalism almost 100% of the time. I have never seen him not bash Bush and republicans and conservatives. He is a total ideologue and a disgrace to journalism.
Matthews is an Obama freak, but I have seen him concede conservative points and criticize democrats and liberals many times.
Nice job, Seton
November 9, 2008 - 13:19 ET by JohnMThanks for running this event - it was fun (!), albeit frustrating to have to listen to them...
Is it now time to splash the final award all over the place? ...just to let the MSM know that their lack of journalistic integrity is known, documented, and gets public attention.
