The Face Of Media Bias

Mark Krikorian makes an interesting point in the Corner on the importance of the Bob Edwards Story (Bob, host of NPRs morning news show just lost his job ... the Washington Post ran the story prominently on the front page).

the idea that this story was important enough to put on the front page speaks volumes about the provincialism of the Post's editors. All the people they talk to think it's an important story, but how about the story on the possible grocery strike (on the front of the Business section) or, heck, something from the Sports page. I couldn't care less about sports, any sports, but it's a lot more important to more people (even in Washington) than who's reading a script on public radio.
