Okay so you've got the Washington Post and the New York Times. The New York Times endorsed Hillary Clinton for President very recently.
Hillary Clinton "won" the Florida primary and is hoping to spin it as a true victory to disrupt Barack Obama's positive news cycle. Of course, it isn't a true victory because the Democratic Primary in Florida was a sham in which ALL of the candidates pledged not to campaign there because the state party had violated national party rules. So there was no campaign there, only names on a ballot. Hillary Clinton is now going against her previous pledge, having gone so far as to suggest that she now will pull a total 180 to fight to have the ballots from Florida and Michigan reinstated. Senator Clinton is banking that the media will allow her to lead the Florida primary news cycle without really providing equal air to the shady context in which this contest took place.
So here are two internet leads from two major newspapers, which do you think is New York Times?
"McCain Defeats Romney in Florida Vote... Clinton Wins in Democratic Race...Senator John McCain won the biggest delegate prize so far in a closely contested primary. Rudolph W. Giuliani was lagging far behind in a state he considered critical."
OR
"Sen. John McCain Wins Florida Republican Primary... GOP candidate wins a crucial victory over Mitt Romney as Rudy Giuliani runs a distant third in a state vital to his candidacy; Hillary Clinton wins largely ceremonial race."
Placement, font, emphasis, word choice...
So many people just see the headline or the crawl...
