Today's Top Ten Front Pages
Kennedy’s Death Tops News in West
By Gene Mater, Wednesday, August 26, 2009

"The time difference makes the difference. Notice of Sen. Ted Kennedy’s death was too late for eastern newspapers but was enough time to make Page One in the West. A gold star goes to the Boston Herald for a replate with a photo of Kennedy filling Page One."

1. The Boston Herald is a right wing fishwrap
that fought Senator Kennedy tooth and nail when he was alive, dredging up the accident in 1968 every time they were forced to print something about him.

The only reason they could have for printing a full page picture is that they want their slant headed subscribers to use it as a dart board.

Silence would have been better from those hypocrites.

I do admit it's a good picture of him, though.

3. Whatever their reasons ...
it was still a nice photo. I like The Desert Sun's photo, too - it looks like he's ready for a fight! :-)

5. Most of Alabama's papers make no mention of it.
Sheesh.
Same papers that tried to hide Obama's election.
