You need to get a sense of humor mate.

The media is not attacking her; it's reporting the news, and she is still news.

The media did not force her to put herself in the spotlight by joining the McCain campaign. She chose to do that, and the minute she got up on the stage at the RNC, and gave that kicking speech, which is going to go into the history books, it was her responsibility to make sure she could handle the media, not the other way around.

And if she was ignorant of this, then she was not qualified to be the president.

In fact, the media were incredibly light on her, given she refused to give even one press conference.

If anyone is attacking her it's the people who worked with her on the McCain campaign. By the end they hated her, but couldn't say anything until the campaign was over. And once it was, they spilled it. That is not the media's fault.

If people are attacking her, she’s a tough cookie, and she’ll live. If not, she never should have run for vice president in the first place.
