Tsunami politik yang terus menghantam PKS sejak awal tahun ini, terus memicu berbagai reaksi dari berbagai kalangan. Mulai dari akademisi, elit politik, pers, tokoh agama, hingga masyarakat umum.

Diantara sejumlah kalangan yang bereaksi di atas, kalangan yang terdengar paling sadis menelan PKS adalah kalangan pers. Dimulai dari hari pertama LHI diboyong oleh KPK hingga saat ini PKS (akan) didepak dari koalisi setgab, pers tidak henti-hentinya menguliti kemana-mana berbagai prahara tentang partai dengan slogan (lamanya) “Bersih, Peduli, dan Profesional” ini.
