Looks like the geniuses at the Washington Post have just figured out that Average Americans are sick and tired of being lied to by the media... they don't say that as they do their usual 'gee, aren't Republicans scary when they're angry' bit.

From the Article: "There were shouts of "Nobama" and "Socialist" at the mention of the Democratic presidential nominee. There were boos, middle fingers turned up and thumbs turned down as a media caravan moved through the crowd Thursday for a midday town hall gathering featuring John McCain and Sarah Palin.

"It is absolutely vital that you take it to Obama, that you hit him where it hits, there's a soft spot," said James T. Harris, a local radio talk show host, who urged the Republican nominee to use Barack Obama's controversial former pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr., and others against him.

"We have the good Reverend Wright. We have [the Rev. Michael L.] Pfleger. We have all of these shady characters that have surrounded him," Harris bellowed. "We have corruption here in Wisconsin and voting across the nation. I am begging you, sir. I am begging you. Take it to him."

The crowd of thousands roared its approval."

Sexism? In the media? SAY IT AIN'T SO!

Ok, so where is CNN's Campbell Brown screaming 'sexism?' No where to be found on this story, huh?
