This editorial from Investors Business Daily is worth the read. And, this part is worth a fleeting note:
"Part of it has to do with Reid's rise to Senate minority leader and then majority leader in 2006. His constituents increasingly feel left behind. Sherman Fredrick, publisher of the Las Vegas Review-Journal, wrote in 2006:
" 'Sen. Reid's undoing came early in his last term when he became a big shot in the Democratic Party and quickly morphed into someone Nevada voters did not recognize — his political girlfriend in the House, uber-liberal Rep. Nancy Pelosi of California."
"The ever-tactful Reid responded, 'I hope you go out of business' — a hope that, if fulfilled, would drive Nevada's record unemployment rate still higher and fly in the face of the political adage that you never argue with people who buy ink by the barrel."
BTW: I was VERY DISAPPOINTED with today's (Sunday's) front page. Depending upon the estimates there were millions of demonstrators in Wash DC and they are relegated to page 5! BO gets top billing on side panel on front page regarding BO's continued "sell job" on health care on PAGE 4.
Anyone that says that the RJ is a conservative newspaper can not dispute the above. It is in "black and white"....
I have noticed that the RJ may be right of center in the editorial section but the news stories and placement thereof are left of center, at best.
From a loyal reader.
Oh BTW: Compare the RJ's coverage of the pro-immigration rally in 2006. Also look and see that the LV Sun did not even acknowledge the rally in the printed version of the "newspaper".
