This clip was emailed to me which appears to show CNN Election Center anchor seeming to clearly biased against John McCain’s running mate Sarah Palin. John McCain is refusing to be interviewed on Larry King Live because of this clip. Please vote whether you think this was a fair exchange.
If anyone can find any other clips please post them in the comments.

Just goes to show you, the Republicans can’t even answer a simple question. Can he give an example? Just one example and answer the question as asked? Or is it that the Repulican operatives now understand English the way W does?
Journalist need to ask many many more of these types of questions.
How could anybody possibly say that this was biased or unfair journalism? Campbell asked a legitimate question about a vice presidential candidate’s experience, and the McCain spokesman tried to dance around the question.
At this point, most “journalists” in the “liberal media” would have simply accepted his unanswer, but she did exactly what any journalist *should* do– she pressed the issue.
If the McCain campaign is unwilling to answer questions about the qualifications of their candidates, perhaps they should concede the election.
This is yet another example of biased journalism. It happens on both sides and disgusts me. I am interested in politics and news because these are things that affect my life. I understand that complete freedom from bias is impossible simply because we are human. However, I do believe that journalists should at least make an attempt to appear unbiased. This is blatant belligerence toward a guest. Some may argue that guests on modern talk shows should expect this sort of hostility, especially if that guest is a Rebup. on CNN or a D-crat on FOX, but I disagree. Just because it has become the status quo does not make it right. Journalism, along with many other professions, should expect a certain decorum from its professionals. Boy, do I miss Tim Russert.
