Aussie Elections

In a temporary defense of the media, the LA Times does have a very nice article today about how happy the Afghans are with the elections. I saw a few yesterday too, including one surprising quote somewhere-or-other about the opposition candidate's complaints being laughed out of Kandahar of all places.
The WaPo ran large front-page articles about: (A) the AFGHAN (JFC Club, please learn to spell the word) elections on voting day, (B) the ink controversy, and (C) the apparent happy resolution. Good Morning America had Hamid Karzai on today.

Y'all can stop blowing the "liberal media" horn wrt coverage of foreign elections. No one wrote about Howard's victory because almost no one in America cares who wins in Australia. After all, it is not the job of the news media to MAKE the story, is it Bilmore? If so, why, Bilmore, why?
