"Time has put Obama on the cover 7 times vs. McCain's two, in spite of McCain having been a political figure for 6x longer."

McSame's BORING. Obama's fascinating.

>>The Post is one media site........why would you think it represents the entire media world?

It doesn't - it is merely one example of a major media outlet being honest about its coverage.

Time has put Obama on the cover 7 times vs. McCain's two, in spite of McCain having been a political figure for 6x longer.


That's only because Obama is newer......over the long haul its very likely McCain has been on the cover numerous times. The media is trying to sell their wares. That doesn't mean there is a bias in favor on the one who is doing the selling......in this case, Obama.

There is plenty of data that leaves the issue unambiguous for those who care to look.

No there isn't.......its the right's insecurities that see it that way. And just for the record, there are many on the left who see the bias the other way.
