Networks Link Bush to 'Skyrocketing' Gas Prices 15 Times More Than Obama

Networks Link Bush to 'Skyrocketing' Gas Prices 15 Times More Than Obama: "Connecting Bush, Not Obama to High Prices: As gas prices rose in 2008, network reporters mentioned President Bush in 15 times as many stories, than they brought up President Obama in a similar period in 2011.
Gallons of coverage in 2008: Comparing a 20 day span of rising gas prices in 2008 to 24 days of rising prices in February 2011, the Business & Media Institute found the networks did more than 2 ½ times as many stories during the Bush years versus Obama."
