Well, it's the Republican Party. And how do we know this? Well, check out the beginning of this AP story: (my bold throughout)
ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) -- Joseph Bruno, the former majority leader of the New York Senate and for a time the most powerful Republican in state politics, was indicted Friday on federal corruption charges.Hmmm. He's noted as a Republican in the first sentence.
Then there's the Washington Post that was in such a hurry that it didn't wait for the story to start at all but told us right in the headline that "Former NY GOP Leader Indicted."
Reuters gives us the important news of party affiliation in it's first sentence, too.
And, on top of that, nearly every single local New York paper, TV and radio report filed on the Internet includes Bruno's party right in the first few sentences.
Whereas, and as we've chronicled roughly one bazillion times in the past, when the media finds a criminal Democrat that politician's party is either buried at the end of the story or never mentioned at all.
[nonsense, there's no bias here - move along...]
