35. Seriously?
Are you under the impression that around the country there's a cabal of rightwing journalists, bent only on the destruction of Wesley Clark?

True story: most newspapers are under intense financial pressure to squeeze every spare cent they can out of their budgets. A working journalist goes into the trade at barely 22,000 a year, and whatever they're covering better be something that sells a paper NOW. Under these circumstances, a speech by an undeclared presidential candidate to an Elk's Hall in rural Pennsylvania isn't worth the resources.
