Liberal Media? more Kennedy coverage in 3 days than Sherwood in a year
my rep. (R) Don Sherwood of PA got less coverage accross the board for having an affair with and beating his twenty-something year old girlfriend in the last year than Kennedy did in the last three days for having a car accident. What's wrong with this picture?

1. Well for one, this is how the powers-that-be want it. And Kennedy
had his accident at a perfect time for the administration and the shit heap that passes for the mainstream media in this country. It was like an answer to a prayer (to some kind of mean-spirited evil god, or maybe devil would be closer).
