I wonder if biased reporting contributes to the declining trends in newspaper circulation? The NY Times is suffering while the WSJ (I admit a conservative bias, I read it everyday - I read the Sunday NY Times when I visit my in-laws and I believe it has a liberal bias). My local paper endorsed Obama, I don't know anyone who knows or cares about the endorsement. High school football gets more coverage than national politics and most of the political stuff they have is AP, nothing unique.
