The Media - the Washington Post
If the poll suits the agenda, it's Page One.
If not, well...
If not, well...
I'll let NewsBusters.org's, Tim Graham tell about this one:
"Eight weeks ago, The Washington Post topped its own front-page with its own ABC-Washington Post poll announcing that the public strongly favored a 'public option' in health care, by 57 to 40 percent. Their latest poll is much worse: 'Negatives abound in poll,' read the subhead. So it was buried on page 6 Wednesday. On the front page instead, a happy-talk headline: 'Health bill’s prospects improve as Lieberman signals support.'
Tuesday's conservative 'Code Red' rally in Washington wasn't buried in the Post. It was nowhere in the Post."
