Washington Post Issue Coverage Tracker

The Washington Post Web site has introduced an Issue Coverage Tracker that graphically displays the amount of coverage each of the presidential candidates is receiving on the campaign trail.

The version below, which the Post makes available for posting on blogs and Web sites, lets you see a breakdown of stories, issue-by-issue, about each candidate over the past two months. Go to the full version for different options and more advanced features. It's worth a look.



The application, according to the Post, draws from the Web sites of "a wide variety of sources across the political spectrum [including] news organizations, political parties, interest groups, bloggers, unions, trade organizations, candidates, activists, and more."
