Gore made them feel dumb. His academic record wasn't impressive, but it was clear that he was much smarter than the average talking head. Also, they wanted that tax cut.

Bush should have come out with the DUI story himself. Still, I've never seen a candidate get is as badly from the press as Bush did between 2000-2004.

Gore was also going to pass a tax cut (but not for them Tongue). Also, if the media wanted low taxes so badly, why did they support Clinton twice and Obama in 2008?

I guess they like charisma, too.
