>>Mike, you're being thin-skinned. The NYT being pro-Obama to an extreme is not news to anyone. In fact, their loss of objectivity is probably why the subscriber numbers are plummetting as they are losing the trust factor.

I have read so many reports of bias in the AP that it is ridiculous. They are divided equally between the AP leaning left and supporting Obama to the AP leaning right and supporting McCain. The AP is too large and widespread to really be controlled top-down to lean in either direction. When an individual reporter shows bias, the AP usually does another story later to balance it out somewhat instead of printing any disclaimer or retraction.
