Glenn, I meant that the media is clearly favoring the Democratic candidate. I had no intent to attribute it to race, so I disagree with your answer to my rhetorical statement.

An independent analysis released just a few days ago said Senator Obama was receiving far more favorable coverage than Senator McCain.

A study done a few months ago reached similar conclusions.
