Rally coverage skewed (duh)...
Just switched on CNN Headline News and saw some coverage of the various rallies in NYC and Chicago. Interesting how the Chicago coverage unfolded. The reporter noted that there were two simultaneous rallies taking place, one across the street from the other.
One is a "support the troops" rally, and, in his opinion, the crowd was "clearly" the larger of the two. Yet the only images shown on camera were those of the anti-war group, including a close-up of an "Impeach Bush" sign. Perhaps that's the network's way of "balancing" coverage: one anti-war image to counterbalance a thousand pro-troop citizens.
Even the ten-second interview with a pro-trooper had the anti-guys in the background, and didn't come close to the couple of minutes spent giving the NYC anti-war protestors a chance to explain their, um, logic.
But, I'm probably just being paranoid.
