Notice how Romney is notably exempt from any critical coverage on Fox News? Every other candidate is subject to critical coverage except Romney. They did the same with McCain in 2008. They made sure to provide 100% positive coverage for him.

It is not just a matter of what they choose to report, it also involves what they avoid reporting as “non newsworthy”

As a one-time journalist I'm very much aware of how stories are "played" or not covered at all in order to slant the news. It's a favorite technique of the *real* left wing media.

Are there any particular negatives about Romney you feel Fox repeatedly ignores? I've heard comments from several Fox talking heads that conservatives consider him too liberal, along with references to his MA health care plan as being the model for Obama's. Just today it was mentioned a couple of times while I was watching that the reason for his poll numbers staying relatively static is that many conservatives consider him too liberal and are shopping for another front-runner.
