LAT cooks the books

The LAT reports this morning on a poll it took with KTLA TV regarding gay marriage in California. The LAT reports that only a small majority of those polled supports a proposed California Constitutional amendment that would ban gay marriage. The LAT also says that the prospects for the proposed amendment are poor because large early majorities are usually necessary if an amendment is to pass.

The LAT could properly have reported that a majority of Californians supports the ban. But that would have required leaving out the editorializing.
