Politics and the Media

Since today is election day, I thought it'd be nice to take a look at who would be covering the election all day. There are actually quite a few interesting recent analyses about how the US media covers politics, but below are two that caught my eye:

First, here is a link to an analysis of country coverage by the New York Times (thanks to Marginal Revolution). And here is an analysis of the major network polls. Does this ordering make sense? Why might there be bias, even in polling?

I usually try not to watch much network news because is is so redundant and overly focused on the horse race aspect of elections.
