The publisher of a newspaper there overruled at 5-2 vote to endorse Kerry.

P.S. Another great pic of Kerry and a baby! Whenever I see a pic of Bush and babies, they're either crying, uncomfortable-looking, or Bush looks like he's about to start eating them!

4. William Dean Singleton CEO of Media News Group is a Bush contributor
Besides the Denver "Post", Singleton, a Bush supporter, controls 40 daily newspapers in Alaska, Colorado, Connecticut, Massachusetts, California, Pennsylvania, Texas, Utah, and Vermont, plus a CBS affiliate in Alaska, and 4 radio stations in Texas.

He had his Lowell Sun, in Massachusetts, endorse Bush, in a blue-collar town. Here is a link to his bashing of Kerry in his home state:
