What amazes me throughout this whole campaign is the media's willingness to hide any and all bad news related to Barack Obama. They covered the Wright tapes only after talk radio and the blogosphere made an issue of them. Everything else is being roundly ignored.
Observe this little gem from Electronic Intifada in which an anti-Israel activist complains that Obama has changed his tune about Israel to run for election. Included in the blog are photos of Obama chatting with well known anti-Semite Edward Said and an account of Obama attending pro-Palestine rallies:

The news media in Israel has picked up on it, but not a single outlet in the West seems to care.
Observe this article (again from Israeli media) that claims Obama's church reprinted Hamas propaganda in their church newsletter, as part of their stance on Israel not having the right to exist:

Once again, completely ignored by the American media.
Observe this newsletter from Obama's church written last year, in which the author claims that Israel worked with South Africa to develop an "ethnic bomb" in their efforts to kill off blacks and Arabs:

Picked up by the blogosphere, ignored by the media.
The more I learn about Obama the more he sends cold chills through me. If the media told the truth about him more Americans would start running away.
