Seattle Times: Edwards is a Good Choice! You Don't Say?

As I stated yesterday, the Seattle Times is beside itself with glee over the choice of John Edwards as Kerry's running mate. After a total of six stories yesterday dealing with Kerry's choice for Veep, we have the positively pointless story on page A4, "Kerry, Edwards Celebrate Values, Ambitions". After reading through the entire piece, the ONLY new thing I learned is that the two believe they posses better hair than the Republican incumbants.

I am truly only half joking here, folks. This fluff piece seems to only convey the fact that both men are extremely pleased with one another. Oh, and that polls show that most Democrats think Kerry's choice was "excellent" or "good".

And then, as if we really needed to be told this, on the Op/Ed pages the Seattle Times states that they believe "John Edwards is a good choice" for Vice President. This appears in their "The Newspaper's View" section.

This is one of those times when little interpretation is necessary, the bias speaks for itself.
