the only other headline that was similar was from a radio station, KKOH-AM, where it read "Dems Reject Open Primary Bill". The story from that radio station was only one paragraph long.
While the Reno Gazette-Journal may be somewhat biased (it is a Gannett newspaper), I suspect that it is less biased than the Las Vegas Journal Review (Sheldon Adelson's newspaper) which didn't even cover the story. Most media sites between the Pacific Coast and the Northeastern states are biased, but I try to find liberal sources where possible.
The only other daily newspapers in Nevada are the Las Vegas Sun-Times, the Carson City Nevada Appeal and the Record-Courier out of Minden. It doesn't appear that Nevada NPR covered the story either.
I'm not saying that the newspaper isn't wrong about the headline or that it put the Democrats in a bad light, but intelligent people are capable of seeing the bias, particularly if they are aware of whether a news organization has a record for being biased. However, considering that the story isn't being reported anywhere else, would you prefer a slanted version of the story or not to read about it at all? If you know of a better source for Nevada news then I will gladly include it on my list of sites that I visit. Thanks.
