Will the media attack Bob Gates?

Driving to work the other day I heard an ABC News reporter scolding Bob Gates like a mother would scold her child. I have been worried that the media will come after Gates with a full barrage in attack mode. However, this piece in Politico by a Georgetown Law Professor named Rosa Brooks seems fair:
I served at the Pentagon myself from 2009 to mid-2011, and generally had a similar reaction: Though there were notable exceptions, many of those on President Obama’s national security staff showed little knowledge of how the Pentagon and the military worked, and less interest.
