That's not surprising. I bet you could pick any newscast each evening and come up with the same results. It's nice to see someone document it though. Unfortunately, we have another 7 months to put up with this. It's going to get worse as the election nears.

hehe. Ironically, my 14 old and I were talking about this sort of thing just today. Awhile ago Time Magazine had as its cover story an article entitled something like "Does Bush Have a Credibility Gap?" My boy was concerned by how Time asked the question, which itself neccessarily means, by implication, that Bush indeed has a credibility gap, and then answers the question in a severely unbalanced article that essentially drags out the same unsupported leftist whining that characterizes the leftist response to Bush. Bush doesn't stand a chance in the leftist media if he does not push the media himself. If he simply campaigns straight on, the media will certainly eat his lunch. But if he artfully goes for Kerry's throat at every turn, delicately protecting his Presidential Aura as best he can, he will commandeer the media to his own favor. This Clarke book and the 911 leftist investigation is very good work by the leftists. It was handtooled by them and timed wonderfully. Now the leftist media are hocking the book and the fraudulent investigation, tying up Bush, keeping him on the defensive. It is lovely work, though because the leftists are exploiting the government, it is amongst the most despicable things I have ever seen in our history. But it is beautiful - no doubt about that. Bush now needs to use this fraudulent "investigation" for his own ends. He needs to keep this thing going strong, using it to help him define 911 and tie it into his overall anti-terror effort, including Iraq! There is a fabulous way to do this that would give Bush plenty of good press, shutting Kerry's message out for weeks on end! If the GOP doesn't see this, then I wonder if they deserve to remain in the White House. (probably not, but the Democrats deserve it far less than the GOP).
