If car dealers are being investigated for violating campaign law by advertising $30 tabs if you buy a car from them, then why can't the states newspapers be investigated for continually printing doom and gloom articles and "Vote No" indorsements.

The Tri-City Herald has a 200 word limit on letters to the editor concerning potical questions, yet run full length editorals on why we the people should vote no. And in the same pages run several articles about how bad I-695 will be when it passes.

I do not know the policy of the other papers in the state but the P-I is running a week long commentary on what they think the ill effects of I-695 could be.

Ed - just wondering how much money in print space is being used up by the liberal media to keep the common person in line.
