"The new president should also post his daily schedule online."

Is that a safety advice or what???

I hope you are not suggesting he should be the person he is not. "He would be wise to go to the New York Stock Exchange and ring the opening bell one morning"???

The media has been in B. Hussein Obama''s backpocket since day 1. And now they want more - especially when they didn''t show ALL they knew about him. Please you ask for more? I hope he gives you NOTHING - especially since you put him in the White House. The media will deserve everything they get - or don''t get! You bashed Hilary, You bashed Palin, You bashed McCain, but you kiss MAJOR butt to B. Hussein Obama, oh excuse me President-elect B. Hussein Obama.

CBS is in a quandry. How will Obama win over the troubesome media? I don''t think he has anything to worry about. How about "How Can Obama Get The Media''s Toungue Out Of His A S S?" Now that''s a headline...

Barack? Needs to WIN OVER media!!!!???? Nonsensical story. Barack has had the media in his control since Iowa...and will continue to do so. He would have to commit a felony at half time before a packed stadium of witnesses to get negative press from the media...he will have the longest honeymoon any president has ever had...(because the media will not want to admit they might have been wrong and far too partisan)...let''s hope he uses this media adoration to get something done for the rest of us...as hard as you try you can''t eat hope.

The title of this article''s hillarious. How Obama can win over the media. The BIASED media. He doesn''t have to do anything! Boring isn''t it. Biased media are adult kids over the age of 21. Again, boring.

To quote John McEnroe: "You cannot be serious!" Obama could snort cocaine off the sidewalk in Times Square and you guys would hand him a handkerchief. Since you got him elected, why don''t now report all the lovely information you ''overlooked'' prior to the election!

CBS, it''s all about altering History. You kissed buttt to ride on the Obama train. Now you think he''s going to be transparent? The media is pathetic.

Does the term "Media Bias" mean anything to these guys?

You''ve got to be kidding me. Obama and the media have had a love fest for the last 2 years. Chris Matthews and his thrill up his leg and Olbermann looks positively orgassmic when he talks about the one. Good luck on the transparency. Tom Brokow and Charlie Rose had quite the discussion about all that they still did not know about Obama the Friday before the election. But love is blind.

I''m sorry, I don''t understand the question. Mainstream media fawns over Obama. Tears form in their eyes and urine dribbles down their legs whenever they gaze into his eyes. Why should he need to improve the relationship, the media is already in his back pocket.

This idiot Stengel speaks of transparency, yet none of the liberal media ever made any attempt at getting to the truth of any of the issues surrounding this campaign. If they had, then their darling would not have been elected. We can not and should not have complete transparency in government. There is a thing called national security for a reason.

And don''''t you think Obama''''s posters remind you of the same kind of propaganda art from other Communist leaders like the Cuban, Che Guevara, or the Chinese leader, Mao Tse Tung?

That''''s because they think alike.

They''''re all Communists.

The next thing you know, the Democrats will issue everyone their little red book...

I''m glad someone else sees the similarities of the posters, the one with Obama''s face with the red and grey background really creeps me out.

LOL. Is this guy kidding?
CBS was in the bag for The Messiah from the start. Now that they have given him all the powwer, they want to share it with regular access and updates so they can provide their continuing imprimater on everything he does. Get real, Obama is a liberal, socialist but he''s not stupid.
