    It's not just Fox

    This morning's top-of-the-hour capsule reports on NPR also failed to mention Cunningham's party affiliation. Is NPR moving to the right, or is this par for the course in short, capsule stories? I honestly don't know.

    I'd give Fox the benefit of the doubt, if that hadn't already proven themselves to be craven partisans. But what do we make of NPR's failure to mention Cunningham's party affiliation in their capsule? It should be noted that NPR did mention his party affiliation in a longer story on the subject.
