Crush Liberalism

Magazine that keeps putting Obama on the cover sees its objective Obama reporter JOIN the Obama administration

Yet another professional, objective journalist to join Team O in D.C.  From Newsbusters, with a beverage warning for the bold text below:

Daren Briscoe, a Newsweek correspondent who was embedded with Barack Obama’s 2008 presidential campaign, has taken a job with the Obama administration, according to an email sent to a listserv of his classmates at the Columbia University’s Graduate School of Journalism.

The email, written by Time reporter and fellow Columbia grad Jay Newton-Small, said Briscoe would be serving as deputy associate director of public affairs for the Office of National Drug Control Policy as of Monday.

“Despite his multiple basketball games with our commander-in-chief, he always brought a skeptical eye to his work and in conversations about the candidate,” Newton-Small wrote the email.

Briscoe’s campaign reporting helped provide the basis for Newsweek’s book on the campaign, A Long Time Coming.

Yeah…so “skeptical” that he’s quitting his job to join B.O.

But I’m just sure none of this admiration and desire to join The One’s team showed up in any way in the dude’s reporting, right?

Nope…no liberal media bias!
