• September 1 -- "Ruthless" Rudy Attacks Kerry

• August 2 -- NYT Columnist Finds Huge Bias for Kerry Among Reporters
Columnist John Tierney finds enormous liberal bias among reporters at the Democratic convention: "When asked who would be a better president, the journalists from outside the Beltway picked Mr. Kerry 3 to 1, and the ones from Washington favored him 12 to 1. Those results jibe with previous surveys over the past two decades showing that journalists tend to be Democrats, especially the ones based in Washington."

• July 28 -- "Feisty" Teresa Heinz Kerry
The Times soft-pedals the controversy over Teresa Heinz Kerry's "feisty comments."

• July 28 -- John Kerry's Photo Flop
The Times has an amusing take on the photograph of John Kerry in blue: "The resulting photo made him look like the sperm played by Woody Allen in 'Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Sex but Were Afraid to Ask.'"
