34. I don't think any of the media was fair...

to Clinton at all. It was Monica day and night and never the twain shall meet. They mercilessly bashed the Clintons until they were (rhetorically) black and blue.

There were exceptions with Eric Alterman, et. al, but very few stuck their necks out to defend Bill Clinton. For 8 years Clinton had his spokespeople out there refuting the critics the best they could but even they were drowned out by Bob Barr and all of rest of the "house managers."

There was no support for going after Bush, even though there was reason to do so, because the Republicans have all the power and the media.
