Excerpt:
I think three of the most important factors that contributed to CNN's and Yellin's biased reporting. Here they are in no special order:
The media is an inherently conservative institution and Yellin and her colleagues believe it would be a mistake to leave Iraq.
The media also lives and dies by its ratings, and the closer they can keep the campaign, they higher they think their ratings will be, so they have every incentive to issue damaging stories about the front runner.
The McCain campaign, especially blogger Michael Goldfarb (who floated the meme last week), did an excellent job of conditioning the press corps to pounce on anything that could have even remotely indicated the possibility of a forthcoming policy reversal. I'm sure my list isn't exhaustive, but those are my top three items.
As always,

P.S. Don't let this man get away! This is talent we can definitely use. Kidnap him if we have to if no longer then to the convention. Believe me, The Jed Report is not going un-noticed.
