Ray Robison has found a perfect example....

   ....of [1]media bias. If you've never heard of Tina Richards, there's
   a reason. The media is ignoring her.
   Tina is the mother of a Marine and an anti-war activist. Why would the
   media ignore her?

     I used Google News to check for references to Richards swarm (do it
     yourself "swarm on congress"). As of the night of May 8th, 2007
     there are two, just two media reports -neither of them from
     big-media - about what Tina Richards has organized for the week
     following Mother's Day. Cindy Sheehan by comparison went down to
     the middle of Texas and parked herself in a patch of scrub grass
     next to a huge ranch and it was world news (even the name "Camp
     Casey" has entered our common lexicon thanks to media
     reinforcement). Richards and her supporters will park themselves in
     the halls and offices of the center of our democracy and the media
     response is, well....cough....cough.
     The difference between Sheehan and Richards? One went after a
     Republican which pleases the liberal media bias, the other after a
     Democrat which must be covered up, lest the Democrats look bad. How
     much more obvious can it be that the American media is now hardly
     more than the propaganda wing of the Democratic Party?

   How much more obvious indeed.
