My letter to the Channel 5 newsroom
They did a political story tonight about Palin's blathering about Obama associating with terrorists. Here's what I wrote:

Tonight's coverage was biased against Sen. Obama. Specifically, the story about Gov. Palin's charges about Sen. Obama associating with terrorists. Clearly she is reaching. Your story mentioned Prof. Ayers history as a radical. Obama's contact with him came as a result of their work to better the south side community of Chicago. What disturbed me is that you failed to mention John McCain's patronage by Charles Keating of the Keating 5. There is no comparison: Sen. Obama was 8 years old when Prof. Ayers was a "radical"; Sen. McCain was 58 years old and knew what he was doing. There is a huge difference here that your story did not explore.

Here's the link if you wish to write also:

1. I didn't see Channel 5's report, but your letter was nicely written!
Just though I'd let you know.
