Project for Excellence in Journalism

Do you get the feeling that the media spends an inordinant amount of time scrutinizing the Democratic presidential wannabes? Perhaps that's because they DO. This is from the blog at the Columbia School of Journalism:
"Coming in under the category of something I knew, but didn't know I knew, is the fact that coverage of the upcoming presidential election has so far been slanted toward the Democratic race, with sixty one percent of the coverage focusing on Democratic candidates, with just twenty four percent dealing with Republican candidates. If you think that proves that the media is liberal, think again: "Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, and Michael Savage were the most Democratic focused of all--75% of their time on Democrats and only 13% focused mainly on Republicans.""
