Taking a look at the Denver Post this week again, I found myself once again unimpressed with their coverage and infographics in regards to the 2012 presidential election.
The picture above is their infographic on the delegate count for Republicans. While it gives you all of the information you need, it does so in a very bland way that fails to distinguish itself from any other news site. In addition, above the infographic on the webpage, it provides links to the Super Tuesday primary results. This is nice and all, except that Super Tuesday was quite some time ago, and multiple primaries have taken place since then.
It just gave me the feeling of the Denver Post does not care very much about its coverage if it does not even bother to update its site with the newest primary information.
This is nothing new though. Throughout the semester, I have been disappointed with the Denver Post's coverage of the primaries. If it covers it at all, it for the most part it sticks to AP coverage. I would expect more from a big-time newspaper like the Denver Post.
