Bill Clinton: Media will favor Obama in 2012

Bill Clinton, making the prediction in an upcoming Esquire, while talking about the 2012 race (emphasis added).

"So even though the conditions of the country are difficult, I expect him [Obama] to win.

And I also think, based on what happened in 2008, that once he gets an opponent in the general election, I think except for Fox and the conservative outlets, the media will tilt back toward him. The coverage won't be as anodyne and evenhanded as it has been."
