Four years ago a similar study found the coverage of Gore was more negative then the coverage of Bush. I think a lot of it has to do with putting the spotlight on the bad things attributed to the guy in office (regardless of if they are responsible for it or not). Why does the media do that? Because bad news drives ratings. It's all about the sensation of the scandal.
So how about some news coverage of some other candidates. I bet Badnarik would give his left nut to get the bad press of both Bush and Kerry combined. At least they get press.
