Equate them? I never said that. How about if the media devotes any coverage at all to Senator Yee. This story is like House of Cards, Scandal and American Hustle combined. If you think that the media I cited wouldn't be all over this story like flies on **** if Yee was a Republican, you aren't being realistic.

i've seen coverage of yee, more than once on the news. so, obviously the media covers it. i've been out of town, and out of the loop for days, and still knew about the story. i think he's gotten as much coverage as anyone in that situation would-actually, more since it's california. there has been regional coverage in the past of la and arkansas politicians, but no national coverage.
and of course wendy davis got press-texas being texas. had that been in north dakota, it wouldn't have gotten near the coverage. witness mississippi, which just had their legislature pass a religious rights bill much like what arizona's governor just vetoed, i've seen no national coverage. nobody gives a sh!t about mississippi.
