Do you think the internet has aided in making the president look bad?
I say this because, before the internet people had to rely on a few news sourcses for their info about the president and what he is doing. now every thing they do from sunrise to sunset is under an electron microscope. More thoughts? agree, disagree?

I am a big proponent of transparency (sp?) when it comes to all things related to the government. The internet isn't really a 'unbiased' news source, since most people either are pro- or contra-Bush.
The only reason that the intarweb may have helped in making Bush look bad is the lack of censorship. The traditional press did not have access to the area, but people there could still report using the provided hotspots.

I agree with Shakka, when we look at things from a information-focused perspective, i.e. there's as good a chance of something bad about Bush leaking as there is of something good. However, I do think that anti-Bush humour has been better than pro-Bush humour, and hence that the average Joe has been [i]subjected[/] to more anti-Bush material than pro-Bush material.
