Why is it we get massive national coverage of VP candidate Sarah’s Palin’s daughter Bristol — including three NYT page one articles in one day – while the fact Presidential candidate Barack Obama’s half-brother lives on a dollar a day in a Third World war-zone hellhole, despite the Obama family’s millions, goes pretty much unnoticed outside of British papers?
Yes, that’s a rhetorical question.

When Joe Biden tragically lost his wife and infant daughter in a car wreck in 1972, not a single colleague, friend or competitor advised him to quit his newly won Senate seat to raise his two little surviving sons.
Rather, he was sworn into office from the injured boys’ bedside, and took to commuting an hour and a half each way from Delaware to Washington. And when Biden’s second wife gave birth to a daughter, no one thought to ask him to step aside and stay home.
…The stupendously sexist New York Times printed a front-page article noting that some unnamed women argue over “whether there are enough hours in the day for her to take on the vice presidency, and whether she is right to try.”
Nazi analogies suddenly in vogue
Huh? What? Maybe you haven’t heard. Sarah Palin and now the entire GOP have been compared to the Nazi’s this week. Where you ask? On nasty left wing blogs? Well, probably there too. How about on MSNBC by a Democrat congressman, on CNN’s Larry King Live and even by the Obama campaign itself.
An emailer to Michelle Malkin,
“Isn’t it ironic that most major newspapers will not print the names of minors involved in criminal acts including murder, but they can trash Bristol Palin? Just proves the drive-by media is driven to despicable double standards.â€

Republicans rally around a career woman with a stay-at-home husband, and Democrats call her a negligent parent. Who are the feminists again?
Bryan Pick at QandO,
Why is it that the only major media outlet that managed to keep the same journalistic standards intact from the Edwards affair to Sarah Palin is the National Enquirer?
