McCain: 14% positive, 60% negative, 26% mixed.
Obama: 36% positive, 29% negative, 35% mixed.
Criteria: "In examining tone, the Project’s authors wrote that they took a 'cautious and conservative approach,' only judging a story positive or negative if the slant was very clear."
For McCain, I'd wager that the "mixed" were more negative than positive, and for Obama the opposite was true.
But the media aren't at all biased....
In an ideal world, wouldn’t the stories be 100 percent mixed for both? Don’t reporters, editors and producers understand that it their job to present facts and all sides of an argument? This really shouldn’t be that difficult.
