1. If you haven't ready articles by Rolling Stone's Matt Taibbi yet - read them. He is one of the best political writers at calling it like he sees it - and more often than not - he's totally on point
2. Taibbi was on CNN today - and said journalists do not think election will be close, only say so to ‘Sell Advertising’ - and he's right. In just about every poll out there - Obama is beating Romney by double digits - and even beating him in some swing states. BUT according to the media - this race is oh so close. A great example of the media will play up any story and throw in some added suspense just to pad their bottom-line - even if the story isn't true...
Take a look CNN interview with Taibbi below:
