Anyone or any group keeping track of free airtime given candidates
It seems the only airtime given Kerry is critical of him yet the airtime given shrub is mostly stump speeches without comment unless praise, I watcing CNN now and he's had at least 3 minutes of uninterrupted stump and so far nothing on Kerry. Where is the coverage on the 30,000 people how showed up at a recent Kerry rally, the only place I've heard about this is here at DU but nothing on CNN or MSNBC. The cable networks SUCK!

4. Try this link

i know that "media matters" watched airtime during the repsective conventions, and found more coverage on fox for bush. i think the # was 25% more.

anyhow try this link, and scroll down. it has tons of other links to media watchdog groups. unfortunately, a lot of the kind of information that you are speaking of does not emerge normally until the elections are over.
