LAT evaluates McCain/Obama appearances

On Sunday morning, the LAT reported on the appearances of John McCain and Barack Obama at Saddleback Church in Southern California. In its wisdom, the LAT says Obama was analytical and nuanced and revealed more about his faith. McCain had the easier task, the LAT says, apparently meaning to suggest he had a friendlier audience. The LAT should know that readers are less interested in reporters' evaluations than in what the presidential candidates said.
