the star tribune is decidely liberal where the pioneer press has trended towards a more conservative stance. I'd say it has nothing to do with advertisers but the changing demographics in the area. Minnesota is no longer a bastion of liberal ideas. i think that between both major metro papers and the occasional story in the city pages, you can get a good view of many sides of an issue. > During February sweeps, one of our news departments > ran a feature they have > done for the 2nd year in a row where they compare > the prices at Cub, Rainbow > and Target and announced that Target was lower.

Must be some more of that LIBERAL > press!! if the story was on what stores are union and what stores weren't I could see where that would be important to add. it wasn't. it was on prices and prices is what was reported on. john harris webber-camden __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
