Although his home is several hundred miles from Los Angeles, the Los Angeles Times dedicated an abundant 1,857 words and four photos today (Monday October 24, 2005) to the home of Steve Pearcy. For several months at his home in Sacramento, Pearcy has hung the figure of a soldier in effigy (photo) with a sign "Bush Lied. I Died." In addition, writes the Times (emphasis mine),

The Pearcys once stuffed the U.S. flag in a trash can and another day hung the Stars and Stripes in a noose from a tree. One afternoon, Pearcy's Porsche bore an F-word rant against Bush, the police and Israel (he says it was meant as a joke for friends stopping by).

Even though the Times displayed two photos of the "Bush lied" effigy (one on page A2, the other in color on page B1), did they bother to question the Pearcys about what they believed the President actually "lied" about? No ... Or if they did, they didn't print the answer.

It's hard to imagine the Times giving a similar, sympathetic treatment (four photos, 1800+ words) to a pro-military, pro-USA exhibition.
