After a speech at Harvard's Institute of Politics Forum, MSNBC's Chris Matthews jokingly admitted his station's bias toward Barack Obama.

From a Harvard Crimson story:

When asked by another audience member how he would respond to the claim that MSNBC officially supports Obama, Matthews responded with typical Hardball wit, “Well, it’s not official.”

According to the Crimson story (http://www.thecrimson.com/article.aspx?ref=523508#), Matthews spoke about the limitations and shortcomings of political news coverage on TV.
