IMO, the fourth estate is turning an increasingly critical eye on the current president because (a) the media have an increasingly testy relationship with the White House and (b) the media are trying to ride the crest of the president's declining popularity (much the same way it sought to ride the crest of the man's rising popularity when he was pitching "hope" and "change" as a candidate).
This might be the key to this complete discussion.

Are we being manipulated by the 4th estate??

Or is Barry & crowd trying to goat main stream Americans into orchestrating his ascension to a dictatorship,, because there are TOO MANNY AMERICANS PLOTTING AGAINST AMERICA-BHO-ME-Barry-USA (all terms interchangeable)!!!

One of his community organizer quote(s):
Quote:
"The Radical may resort to the sword but when he does he is not filled with hatred against those individuals whom he attacks. He hates these individuals not as persons but as symbols representing ideas or interests which he believes to be inimical to the welfare of the people(himself). (Saul Alinsky 1946: 23)

At the risk of sounding uncharacteristically bitter, I believe that the PRIMARY(penultimate) thing on their minds is providing American citizens with RUMORS(facts) that can WILL(be) used to INSTIGATE(debate) a COMPLAISANT(controversial) TAKE OVER (topic).
Just changed a few words...
