Some numbers came out recently about it.  Purely postive media 
coverage of Obama is about 67%  For McCain it is about 36%  Almost a 
2 to 1 ration in favor of Obama. Those numbers are approximate.

The Late night talk shows jokes are much worse.  They tracked a 
period of weeks.  There was about 276 jokes about McCain and 42 about 
Obama.  7 to 1 ratio.
