Thompson

Thompson finally declared his candidacy. After much talk he finally has declared it officially. NPR and the LA times seem to make him out as the hero of the rightist movement. He is just to the conservative americans. The NYT wont even give him that.[http://thecaucus.blogs.nytimes.com/2007/09/08/2008-thompson-dives-in-hagel-may-step-out/ ]
They show how he skirts around homosexuality and other important conservative topics.

From what I have read no one really takes him seriously. He came in late to the elections. missed many of the debates and is currently justifying his actions. The newspaper seem to all concede that he is over-the-hill. His election being a feeble attempt at his once existing political career. Even the pictures make him seem very old.

Ofcourse none of the articles said that. They all were fair on the surface. Quoting different people. THey quoted Thompson himself and when he defended himself. The pictures were not that obviously biast. but is that not worse then if the newspapers simply came out and be clear about their point of views. because if people believe that these sources are unbiased and fair then they will forget to look at other sides of the story. It seems that Thompson's fate has already been sealed by the somewhat liberal media.
