Proposition 8 and the Media
By now, you've probably heard that the judge in California ruled Proposition 8 (which made same-sex marriage illegal) unconstitutional. Yay! Go judge!
I found it very interesting that when I entered "Proposition 8" into Google, the first result was a story about the overturning, the second was a Wikipedia entry, and the third was a Fox News headline: PROTESTS PLANNED IN SALT LAKE CITY AFTER PROPOSITION 8 RULING.
Ah, Fox News. They can't even report this story straight, so to speak. Their first instinct is, apparently, to report about the ruling's protests instead of on the ruling itself.
