Continuing the Duke rape vs. Jim Black’s speakership coverage analysis, today we find the local Knight Ridder outlet devoting 40 inches of the B-front to the Duke story. The continued loss of support for Black among Democrat legislators nets a grand total of — wait for it — 1.5 inches on the same page.

And we’ve yet to hear from Rick Thames on the reason why.

Meanwhile, the Durham DA has decided to go dark on the case until DNA results are in. Better late than never.
