This has been on Yahoo's front page all day.

So has this...

Romney is apparently a prick for showing up early and not having a gift for Obama since the headline and first few paragraphs are all about that.

Those are front page worthy news items for the entire day according to yahoo's unbiased staff.

Meanwhile, the situation in Syria isn't...

Ace put together several years of shootings happening, the media assuming it is right wing, then scrubbing history when it turns out the shooters are left wing.
