FIRST SPOUSE: COMPARING COVERAGE OF BILL, MICHELLE AND CINDY
Since January 1, the husband of candidate Hillary Clinton (D-NY) appeared as a lead newsmaker in nearly four times as many stories (298) as the spouses of Sen Barack Obama (D-IL) and Sen John McCain (R-AZ) combined (78). (Significant newsmaker means that at least 25 percent of the story is about that figure.)
