Politico's VandeHei: 'Not Any Single Reporter At Any Media Organization Thinks Palin Should Be President'

June 14th, 2011 8:03 AM

People know that the MSM despises Sarah Palin.  Still, it was shocking to hear the beans so blithely spilled . . .

Jim Vandehei of Politico, on Morning Joe today:

"If you talk to any single reporter at any media organization that we're aware of, I don't think that anyone thinks she can be president or should be president."

Vandehei was reacting to a column by Joe Scarborough in today's Politico, "The media's creepy Palin obsession." The Morning Joe host lambasted the MSM's bias against Palin, as epitomized by this week's Palin-email witch hunt by such worthies as the New York Times and the Washington Post.

 

JIM VANDEHEI:  Palin wasn't on the stage [at last night's Republican debate] but people continue to be obsessed with her.  Joe has a good column on our site today where he talks about this: this bizarre media obsession with Sarah Palin.  He talks specifically about those emails.  I guess I'll be curious to hear a little more from Joe, because you guys talk about her a lot, we write about her a lot,  yet if you talk to any single reporter at any media organization that we're aware of, I don't think that anyone thinks she can be president or should be president," yet she gets a ton of coverage and I think that the emails really capture that moment.
