   yes.   
      
   The NYT, BBC, NPR gave *lots* of coverage to the Iraq elections,   
   before and after, and the cover enough real news every day so that   
   there is plenty of time and space to cover lots more than Cable News   
   does.   
      
      
   There is no perfect media from my POV, and I hope yours, also.  Their   
   imperfections doesn;t mean I dismiss them. I nag and complain and try   
   to make them better.
