I started the thread just to demonstrate ( yet again) the subtlety of media bias. MSNBC did not mis-report--they just managed to plan their time so as to NOT report what was happening, and to reinforce the white image they wanted to report.

Essential devil's advocate question - did Fox do the same or feature them fully? I don't know these names (as I'm not a politico by nature, my media studies surround other areas). That will give a yardstick to measure from at least, according to their draw.
As much as I tire of the media bias threads you start I can't debate that they aren't important issues to discuss. I'm glad people pick up on this. I personally waver from side to side depending on topic.
