News: Politics of coverage

Time now Wednesday 10:04AM PDT. Just checked ABCnews.com, NBCnews.com, CBSnews.com, CNN.com, Foxnews.com ...

Four of the five news sites have the Ohio kidnap story as the main story. I define main as big fonts with prominent photo at the top of the web page.

One news site has the Benghazi hearings as the main story.

The other four that have the Ohio story prominent do have "watch live" links.

What does this say about the editorial decisions at the major news sites?
