This week's entourage of reporters following Obama's trip to various countries has brought about much discussion on the blatant bias of the media. Does it exist? A recent report surveyed June's political coverage of the three main networks: Obama received 114 minutes while McCain received 48 minutes.

Of course media bias exists. While some make excuses that Obama is just more exciting and newsworthy, no one can deny that the media is a tool for the democratic nominee. But why should we be surprised? And how should we let this impact our attitude and influence?

Being Christlike and upholding godly standards was not popular in Jesus' day, and it won't be popular in ours. But Jesus continued to influence His world, and so should we.

So let's give it a rest. Let's not spend any more time stressing about something we can't change. Instead, let's concentrate on making the most of the opportunities we have. Let's turn the bias into opportunities. Jesus' works spoke for themselves. So will ours.
