Watchdog study finds more criticism of Dean than other Democrats on network news

A lie about some media conspiracy to support Howard Dean has been posted here ad nauseum. The first real study on it says otherwise.

"Howard Dean received significantly more criticism on network newscasts than the other Democratic presidential contenders, who were the subjects of more favorable coverage, according to a study released Thursday.

More than three-quarters of the coverage of Dean's foes by the nightly news programs was favorable, while a majority of attention to Dean was negative, the Center for Media and Public Affairs found."

1. I believe it.............
from everything I've seen on network and cable news they attack Dean on every front and often. None of the other candidates receive the same level of attacks. Which leads to me to believe that Dean is the one they fear most of upsetting the Bush apple cart and their cozy tax breaks.
