You may have noticed that almost every time Elizabeth Warren is interviewed, she is asked if she plans to run for president in 2016.
FOX News media analyst Howard Kurtz thinks it's because the press is longing for a competitive race on the Democratic side in 2016 and perhaps because journalists feel an "affinity" for Warren.
Watch this segment from FOX News on Saturday:
I think there's a much simpler explanation for the media's obsession with Warren; they love her.
The media is overwhelmingly liberal and many journalists view Warren as the next Obama.
They'll settle for Hillary and even pull the lever for her in 2016 if they have no choice, but they'd rather get behind a candidate like Warren who has become the left's standard bearer on issues like income inequality.
