NPR had a story about how Obama has received about twice as many press mentions as McCain since May, and some people thought that was terrible.

But the two most important points were:

1. Obama has been in the middle of a tough primary fight for most of that time, while McCain clinched in March.

2. *More* coverage didn't equal *more favorable* coverage. The stories were about evenly split between positive, negative and neutral.
