Duncan Hunter Takes on the Media

Posted on January 7, 2008

First he sent out a press release today calling for a major announcement for his campaign. Everyone assumed he was dropping out. Then he turned around to announce that he was staying in, and take some knocks at the media. Now this video is making the rounds.

Its really hilarious. Just look at Chrissy’s face! I couldn’t decide whether to feel sorry for Mr. Hunter or applaud him. Since I have great respect for the man, I think I will applaud him. I am not sure if this will turn into a good moment or backfire though. It is quite enjoyable though. Media blacking you out? Just waltz right in, and make them pay attention. He’s obviously had enough.

One problem, he walked in on Morning Joe. O’Reilly had the ratings numbers on morning shows and Morning Joe gets a .2 share down from .3 in November. So as much as we should applaud Duncan Hunter’s moxie for walking onto the set, no one saw it. Live anyway.

He had the opotunity, he took the risk, and he made his point. Sometimes assertiveness is worth the cost and what would he have gained if he did not take that risk.

Ow wow, he took a swipe at the big bad media, how brave and original. I’m going to vote for him just for that, cause it’s so important to criticize the liberal media while I feed myself a steady diet of am talk shows and right wing blogs.
