America's presidential race | The Palin effect | | The Economist

The Economist is about as close to objectivity as you can get. It doesn't care about party, it truly orients itself towards economics. It really is just my opinion, but I do feel they give it to you as straight as they can. I find myself reading other news sources less and less.

America's presidential race | The Palin effect | | The Economist: "Mr McCain has also been caught telling some straightforward fibs, for example that Mrs Palin, as governor, had “never” sought federal earmark money for her state—her request per head for Alaska was the biggest in the country. He and Mrs Palin continue to insist that she killed an infamous “bridge to nowhere” project in Alaska, even though every journalist in America now knows she did so only after supporting it, and only after it became a political albatross. Mr McCain has good reason to worry about his reputation for straight-talk, the strongest part of his political brand."
