What Media Bias? Part 143

From Powerline:

The New York Times runs a long story on Senator Christopher Dodd’s crashing reputation among Connecticut voters without once mentioning that Dodd is a, well, you know what. The Times does note that Connecticut is a heavily Democratic state. It does mention that Dodd was “once known for championing populist initiatives like the 1993 Family Leave Act” (!). It does identify some of those interviewed for the story as, well, you know what, but never Senator Dodd himself. And it also mentions that “the firestorm has encouraged Republicans.”

Those who can draw inferences will be able to name that party!

Its quite simple – when a GOP runs afoul of law or morality, he’s clearly ID’d as a Republican. When a Democrat does such things, its like pulling teeth to get the MSM to clearly and consistently identify the miscreant as a Democrat.
