Media Bias

In a recent article, liberal blogger David Feign talks about how the local media is siding in regard to the runoff elections. According to Feign, he states the Austin American Statesman is the lone supporter of Tea Party candidate Ted Cruz while other local papers such as The Houston Chronicle and the Dallas Daily News show support for David Dewhurst. Feign criticizes all these media sources, though, he also believes that  Republican David Dewhurst would be the better candidate because of his far superior qualifications because served in the Air Force, ran a business, has served as land commissioner, and as Lieutenant governor for a decade. for the support saying, "Cruz is exactly what Texas and the nation do not need, another politician who views compromise as a dirty word and is only content in stalemate or victory. Cruz represents the inexperienced and clueless Tea Partiers that thought the debt ceiling was a "blank check." The Chronicle editorial writers are right to be afraid of Cruz. Hopefully Texas wakes up and joins them."
