a lot

all media sources were shown to be biased against mccain and for obama except for fox which had 50% bias for each

A. no one owns the internet
B. Seriously...McCain was not bias against...he was trying to win as a Republicn following Bush. odds of that were already horrible

The extreme bias in the mass media was a large factor. But many thinking Americans watch Fox which was much more balanced. So I think the bias was a factor but not huge. He might have won even with fair reporting.

I do think the mass media sunk Hillary.
