The corporate media have spun the post-election frame to argue that Obama should break his campaign promises. The financial crisis is too grave. Healthcare reform, renegotiating NAFTA, and the Employee Free Choice Act should all be dropped.
An editorial in USA Today described the above positions as "small bore ideas" that Obama trumpeted more for "their political appeal than for their economic usefulness." So what are the corporate media's interests?
