Fair treatment for all ... stories

Last time there was a big march in Washington, many readers thought the story should have been on the front page instead of page 2, where we published it.

I wonder if they will think the same thing about the National Equality March that is taking place in D.C. today.

(Thanks to Dan Kennedy for the tip.)

Putting it on A-1 would simply prove (what we all know) that the N&R subscribes to teh "Gay Agenda." (for the uninitiated, that was sarcasm)

Should Cindy Sheehan be front page news now?
She was a star for the NR when she protest Bush!
Now she doing the same thing, she can not even get in the paper!

Al Gore was a regular front page story in the NR.
Now he keeps his foot in his mouth, he can only make fox News!
Fair and Balanced?
Better still King Obama is giving the swine flu vaccine to third world nations.
That want to blow your butt off the map.
Yet with holding it from Americans!
Wonder were you liberals would be on this if Bush was president?
Correct answer, you have it on page one day in and day out, not to mention the zillion internet generated LTE!

Doug, with due respect, you're wrong about Cindy Sheehan and her place on the front page. Al Gore did appear on our front page often, back in 2000 when he was running for president. Now, why would we put either of them on the front page?
