Death Of A Newspaper: The Day The Las Vegas Sun Ceased To Be A Newspaper

Mark this date down in history, January 5, 2010, is when the Las Vegas Sun ceased to be a newspaper. Instead of being a newspaper, they became the unofficial campaign spokesman for Rory Reid. Reid is a current county commissioner, running for governor and is son of Harry Reid (Dumbass-NV)
Three huge articles and pictures appeared today and yesterday in the on-line version of the Sun, along with articles in the print version. Tomorrow will be more of the same.
To say that the Sun is a liberal newspaper is like saying the sun is hot or the earth is round.
To show how liberal the Sun is, they have to depend on a conservative newspaper to deliver their print version of fish wrap. The Sun is delivered with the help of the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
To see the biased articles:

http://www.lasvegassun.com/news/2010/jan/04/commission-chairman-rory-reid-announces-his-cost-c/ (in the Beyond The Sun section, the Sun links to the press release put out by Rory Reid- when will they do that for Jim Gibbons or any other conservative?)

When you search on the Sun web site, you come up with 5,260 articles that Reid has appeared in, either directly or through people's comments.
So, RIP, Las Vegas Sun. It was nice to be part of your history- when you actually were a newspaper. Maybe you will become a newspaper once again but I am not holding my breath.
