What a shocker!

No, not the headline–Study: Coverage of McCain Much More Negative Than That of Obama–but the fact that it was published on the Washington Post’s website!

Here’s a little snippet:

Media coverage of John McCain has been heavily unfavorable since the political conventions, more than three times as negative as the portrayal of Barack Obama, a new study says.

Fifty-seven percent of the print and broadcast stories about the Republican nominee were decidedly negative, the Project for Excellence in Journalism says in a report out today, while 14 percent were positive. The McCain campaign has repeatedly complained that the mainstream media are biased toward the senator from Illinois.

Ya think?

Well, okay, so it was published on a Washington Post blog. What are the odds it’ll actually make the print edition on, say, page 1? Now THAT would be shocking if it did.
