The game has changed

Commenting at the New York Times, Frank Rich cannot understand why Sen. Clinton kept repeating her tall-tale about landing-in-Bosnia-under-sniper-fire:

Why did she keep repeating this whopper for nearly three months, well after it had been publicly debunked by journalists and eyewitnesses?

Mr. Rich seems unaware that, in the 1990s, the Clintons could repeat lies indefinitely without fear of correction by the 'unbiased' reporters. The problem for Sen. Clinton is that those same reporters now appear instead to be loyal to Sen. Obama.
