LAT politicking

San Francisco mayor Gavin Newsom is a pro-business Democrat who is labeled "too conservative" by some. He's not just the "Gay Marriage Mayor" as some have called him. Besides, he earned his way from rags to riches before be became mayor.

That paraphrases a piece in the LAT on today's front page which purports to be unbiased news. The LAT had a piece on Newsom's Republican opponent for lieutenant governor, Abel Maldonado, a few days ago. That piece focused on how poorly Maldonado's family farm obeys the law. It also purported to be unbiased news.
