Pat & Donovan,

One of the primary questions that I have concerning their approach is the selection of the ADA for comparative purposes.  My concern is that they have selected an organization that leans left to evaluate news media.  Is this approach valid?  A more complete study would have included a similar analysis using the ACU to see if the correlations still held or whether the selection of the basis organization introduces a skewing effect on the data.
