Scott whines against the MA media. [View all]

Of course, this comes from an interview in the Boston Herald to resident GOP (consultant) Hillary Chabot, but I find it rich to see Brown complain the media are tough with him? Really? I know a few Democrats who could complain the MA media are tough (like our Lt Governor, or our Senator, John Kerry, or our Governor Deval Patrick), but I am sure all of them should be happy to trade place with him when it comes to media coverage (Hell, yesterday, Brown was on TV talking about Iraq and how we should not send the troops back, when the chairman of the SFRC was absent).

As for Warren, she has not yet talked to the local media, so may be we can wait until she does to know whether she gets tough questions (something tells me she will).

Bonus Quote of the Day
"It's all fluff. It's all fluff. Gimme a break. I just think that if you're going to find out where people stand, you gotta ask them tough questions like you guys ask me every single day. Every single day of my existence I get tough questions from you guys."

-- Sen. Scott Brown (R-MA), quoted by the Boston Herald, complaining about the media's coverage of his likely Democratic challenger Elizabeth Warren.

At least, Kerry is getting good editorial media these days from the Cape Ann, North Shore media for his support for a new fishing quota systems.
