Media Matters, nickels and dimes, and Obama's consiglieri

Nickels and dimes...

Yesterday I wrote that President Obama has the mainstream media in his pocket, "like so many nickels and dimes," as Sollozzo phrased it in The Godfather. But that coinage has a consiglieri, which is Media Matters. The Daily Caller has discovered that this tax exempt media research group is shilling for the Obama administration in its attacks on conservative media. Publius Forum thinks it could be the other way around.

Either way--yanking Media Matters tax exempt status needs to be seriously considered.
