Steve Roberts, Ryan Lizza, Lauren Ashburn and Howard Kurtz debate the merits of a Washington Post article about a high school coach’s rant about Michelle Obama.
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.

Why is it OK to talk about a man's weight (Gov. Christie) but not a woman's weight? No one on the panel talked about the gender issue, of course. And no one mentioned that this athletic coach was apparently fired for his remarks about Mrs. Obama.
Absolutely right. Gov. Christie can be mocked for his weight, but a large woman like Michelle Obama can't?
And, of course, Steve Roberts had to bring up the liberal obligatory talking point of "racism".
