As If the Argument Needs to be Made That the Mainstream Press Behaves Like a Tabloid
 

Us Weekly news director Lara Cohen: "To say the news media's coverage of Reverend Wright has been exhaustive is like saying that Us was mildly interested in Brad Pitt's split from Jennifer Aniston. Or, as Chris Rock said recently, "It's like they gave [Wright] his own channel." More accurately, they gave him several channels. His diatribes were on a never-ending loop and the networks unleashed an army of pundits to discuss whether the connection to Wright made Obama inherently unelectable. Personally I'm surprised none of the news outlets employed our resident Body Language Expert to dissect the relationship's nonverbal cues. (Though in fairness, I don't watch Fox so she could've made an appearance there.)" [HuffPo]
