Looking at how the Los Angeles Times covered day two of the Democratic convention versus day two of the Republican convention:
Wednesday, August 27, 2008, following day two of the DNC: The headline is "Clinton calls on her party to end her rift" (click to see the image). A large, full-color Convention photo of Hillary and Chelsea Clinton graces the top of the front page. Inside: Five pages of coverage with 15 more photos (11 color, 4 b&w)
Wednesday, September 3, 2008, following day two of the RNC: The top-of-the-page headline is "GOP touts McCain record" (click to see the image). A large, full-color color photo of President Bush on the video screen addressing the Convention (same size as DNC photo). Inside: Four pages of coverage with 8 color photos, including one of Ron Paul.
When it comes to even coverage, the Times is 0-for-2 so far.

But for the Orange County
September 4, 2008 - 00:16 ET by buddycBut for the Orange County Register that is exactly how it is in California. You get the same tired bias in local tv news, local radio news, big city tv and newspapers, all the pundits and all the experts. It is a closed shop. It is a one party state and the one party controls all media communications. It is really sad. Do you wonder why we have a 15 billion dollar shortfall, with some of the highest taxes in the country, expenditures growing at a 6% rate and the media won't expose the liberal controlled legislature for these problems. If you think our budget problems are bad, you should look into waste and incompetence in our education system.
Best headline tonight right now..
September 4, 2008 - 00:37 ET by mastersofdeceitMy favorite headline right now up at cnn "politics"
PALIN SLAPS DOWN OBAMA, FIRES UP GOP.
Check the other headlines, the mouth foamers are certainly out tonight. I'm not even about to touch a Hate-Wing blog right now. The CNN ticker is enough!
I grabbed a screen shot, but I'm a screen shot dunce. I was only able to save it in a Word doc. Can I get it into my pic folder?
