Obama leads newspaper endorsement race

The latest tally of US newspaper endorsements in the presidential race shows Barack Obama way out in the lead. The Democratic contender leads by 234 to 105 over Republican John McCain, a better than 2-1 margin. In circulation terms, Obama is even further ahead. Papers backing him have sales of more than 21m compared to 7m for McCain. It's all very different from four years ago when John Kerry barely edged George Bush in endorsements. (Via Editor&Publisher)
