How much coverage does mainstream media provide when a black conservative congressional candidate’s sign is defaced with “KKK” and a pornographic drawing? Not a whole lot, at least in the case of Bill Randall, who lost 55%-45% to Democratic incumbent Brad Miller in the 13th district of North Carolina in 2010 and is running again in a district which, thanks to the Republican legislature’s redistricting plan, is considerably more Republican. This blogpost gives a summary of the facts and the sparseness of the coverage, with links to other sources, and the Randall campaign has prepared a pretty funny video about it.
