Why isn't the national media covering Big Dog?
After Philly, it's like he dropped into a black hole.

Hasn't he been to Florida? Isn't he going to Nevada, NM and Arkansas?

From the coverage of Philly you'd think that he'd actually been resurrected instead of just having heart surgery like millions of other Americans. Now where's the coverage?

The national news media in America is the pits.

1. Because he hasn't had a blowjob for quite a while.

2. It's better they keep the focus on John Kerry
Let the local media play up Clinton and energized the base in those swing states. Just my 2 cents.

4. I've seen coverage
but it always focuses on his health and not on what he's saying. It's like they're trying to blame Kerry for threatening Bill's heart. :eyes:

5. the weapons story
is dwarfing every thing else. I'm sure Clinton is getting plenty of local coverage.

8. Same story with John Edwards--- only sometimes I wonder
at how great the local coverage may be of a standard campaign speech.

9. more unfiltered
local news always seemed more unfiltered and without the crazy biases of the national press.

11. Although I think the local coverage is more important
it does seem as though the media is trying to stifle publicity about him.

I hate them, hate hate hate them. DU is becoming my only source of news.
