The Daily Background

I just went to USA Today’s website, and there’s zero mention of the big stories that are rocking Washington. No mention of Kyle Sampson, no mention of Alberto Gonzales, no mention of the US Attorney firing scandal at all.

No mention of the Senate passing the Iraq bill, and only one mention of Iraq and has more to do with Saudi Arabia. Instead they have obviously more important stories such as “Aide: Jackson sick, but not in hospital” and “M.C. Karl Rove raps and dances the night away.”

I’m shocked. Is this how they’re keeping their audience uninformed? Even Fox News’ website has a front page story about Gonzales and Sampson as well as one on Iraq. This is absurd. I know USA Today is pretty conservative, but there’s no excuse for a print news publication to be keeping their audience in the dark about the biggest political stories.
