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. > The Fairness Doctrine will be reinstated and will silence any other >point of view. Well if it comes back maybe I can land a job with Air America :-) ------------------------------------ Yahoo!
