Little Hawk, you're right about that. Front page of the paper the
morning after Obama won, for example: Huge picture of Obama, and one of
McCain making their speeches. It must have covered three fourths of the
page at least. Pages were filled with coverage.
Journalists have been covering the election very heavily each day.
After all, not only does the U.S.A. have a lot of power; but who can
be more interested and concerned about their important affairs than
their next door neighbor? :)
