6. That is a great question.
Are they a daily paper?

I used to do layout for a small daily hometown paper. It takes some doing to rearrange an entire front page before print. That said, I would think that they could have planned for a "special edition" or something.

3. is it possible they went to press before the election results were known?
I'm thinking of the time zone difference between the US and Middle East

7. Please don't leech off of newseum's bandwidth
They're getting pretty battered enough anyway.

That, and I don't see it. For the above-mentioned reason.

8. Two things
First, the bottom right hand corner: "will be counted", a reassurance for the upcoming election.

And second, the Skins-Steelers game was Monday Night Football. Today is Wednesday.

10. my military daughter in korea is the one who called
me off and on all day while i was canvassing yesterday. she was watching military cable they give them where the news is looped around all the channels and went from fox to cnn to msnbc all day. plus she was online.

its a shame though the military paper would not show their new boss considering he is their new commander and chief and will be my son n laws new boss. he is captain in air force.

11. man
people here can be absurdly toxic even after we won

think for one second before you take offense - when obama won, it already WAS november 5th in the middle east

the issue for november 6th has a full page bleed image of obama
