The AP's funny, but unfair photo of Mitt Romney, Ann Romney's fluffy appearance as co-host on Good Morning America and a QVC host doesn't let his co-host's fainting spell get in the way of pushing product.
Now more than ever, the press is a part of every story it covers. And CNN's "Reliable Sources" is one of television's only regular programs to examine how journalists do their jobs and how the media affect the stories they cover. Host Howard Kurtz is the nation's premier media critic, and each week he questions print reporters, television correspondents and Internet bloggers about how the press is covering the major stories of the week.

A section of the media, like CNN and FOX, has given Romney a pass on the glaring inconsistencies in his stated policies. If the President contradicted himself as Romney has during the course of this campaign, he would have been regularly called out on it, and people rightly would be asking themselves if he could be trusted when he cannot be pinned down on any one position. I find it incredible that the media has not been questioning why Romney has changed his positions so often and instead uses the more polite euphemism that he is “moving to the center.” In the real world, when someone easily and frequently morphs his positions and views he would be called an opportunist.
