The Politico doesn't only concede they're "hosing" McCain. Editor Jim Vandehei admits most reporters are "left of center" in a vlog he recorded for their website.

"Yes, there's some press bias," VandeHie said.

"I think in our experience most reporters probably do lean left of center," he explained.  "Reporters don't typically talk about their ideology, but it's just based on our observations."
