Fact 1: 0 media coverage did NOT hurt Dean or Paul in their fundraising efforts

Fact 2: 0 media coverage also did NOT hurt Howard Dean as he rose to the top of the polls.

Fact 3: It was too much media coverage that tinny claims sank Howard Dean's campaign.

What Tinny is trying to claim is that lack of media coverage is what is causing the majority of democrats to reject John Edwards.

However, facts 1 and 2 prove that lack of media coverage doesn't in and of itself keep a candidate down.

Fact 3, according to tinny, shows that if the media actually fears a candidate they will ACTIVELY attack that candidate.

Thus, proving, lack of coverage on Edwards has nothing to do with fear of Edwards, but instead lack of interest, due to unpopularity.
