Yes, although Rafa was nearly as bad. They'd practically have a mini reading library in their office where they'd scrutinise a mountain of newspapers every damned day. The difference was that Houllier just read and reacted, whereas Rafa would try to play the game, as if it was chess, and he ended up putting in as much as he got out. Ged just got drained by the media, Benitez got distracted by it.
