		<description><![CDATA[I spend a lot of time criticizing conservative talk-radio hosts, and some people think I’m beating my head against the keyboard. Too bad for me. Here I go again. I can’t accept that KLZ host’s Ken Clark and Jason Worley agree with Sen. Ted Harvey when he says, on the radio, that Rep. Morgan Carroll’s [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Journalists, like Denver Post Editorial Page Editor Curtis Hubbard, speculated that House Majority Leader Amy Stephens&#8217; primary fight against Rep. Marsha Looper might play a role in the fate of the civil unions bill. Stephens would want to show voters in her El Paso County district that she&#8217;s the uncompromising conservative that she claims to be, versus Looper, who reportedly supports civil [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In a 20-15  party-line vote last Friday, Democratic State Senators defeated a measure that would have given symbolic support to the so-called &#8220;Blunt&#8221; amendment, which would allow employers to opt out of offering health-insurance coverage for health services, including contraception, that employers find objectionable on religious or moral grounds. Media coverage of the measure should have folded in more views from outside [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Even in their heyday, the big urban news outlets almost never covered state legislative races very well, much less school board, city council, and other local elections. Small-time election campaigns were seen, for the most part, as boring to the mass audience, especially on local TV news. New media offer great ways to get to know local candidates in [...]]]></description>

Chris Holbert&#8217;s lone no vote against the state budget bill April 12. Citing unnamed sources, Stokols reported Friday: &#8220;Republicans privately groused that Holbert’s vote amounted to &#8216;sour grapes&#8217; after the House GOP caucus refused [...]]]></description>

Take for example this segment on KVOR&#8217;s Jeff Crank Show March 10 about the Senate District 10 primary between Republicans Owen Hill and Rep. Larry Liston. You can snooze through a lot of talk radio, but not this type of discussion. Crank gets upset, and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I love politicians who have guts to talk about their &#8220;messaging&#8221; in public. Everyone knows it chews up huge amounts of behind-the-scenes time (and money), but the insider debate about messages doesn&#8217;t spill out much. When it does, reporters should be all over it, not to play &#8220;gotcha,&#8221; but to help real people (none of whom read this blog) [...]]]></description>
