I've been watching this story and have been disgusted that THIS Senator's stupid comments have not been reported by the major media outlets.
I had an idea - cnn, cbs, and all the media websites have a spot from where you can 'search' for a newstory on thier site using key word(s). Also, yahoo! keeps track of the top search requests (they call it the "Buzz Index") and is a measure of "what's hot" or "what's on people's minds".

I have been doing searches on all these sites, because I'm sure that someone is tracking/reviewing this type of information.

The goal is for these decision-makers to see that there is a serious public desire to follow this story.

Great minds think similarly. Yesterday I did a search on the ABC News site under "Senator Murray," "Murray," "Murray and bin Laden," and "Murray bin Laden." I found not one mention of this story. I went one step further. I went to their Contact section and told them just what I detailed above and added, "Of course there exists no liberal bias at ABC." I sent the same message to EVERY news show listed in their directory.

I did your "Whats Hot" search on the only newspaper in town, the Sacramento Bee, and found only one article on 12/23/02, a whole three days after the event. Did a Trent Lott search on the same paper and found 17 articles in the same time line. Media Bias blah blah blah...........

Murray can best server the USA by hanging herself and saving us the cost of a trial and execution for treason.
