Coverage biased in favor of McCain
If your newspaper's not so subtle bias for John McCain continues, we will be ending our subscription.
The July 25 edition began with the headline "Woo Europeans or meet Americans," setting up a false dichotomy to imply that Obama's historic speech in Berlin was somehow unpatriotic (which of course follows the GOP party line). Then your editors carefully cut and pasted the AP stories to make sure McCain's rest stop at a restaurant included no critical comments of his campaign.
But at the same time nearly one-third of the portion of the AP story you used of Obama's campaign day was devoted to a blistering anti-Obama letter to the editor to a German newspaper which few Americans have heard of, written by an obscure Republican congressman from Michigan, whom even fewer Americans have ever heard of.
What's next... a quote criticizing Obama from a goat herder in Kazakhstan?
