McCain's top campaign aides devoted a healthy chunk of a conference call today to complaining about what they say is imbalanced media coverage, reserving special criticism for The New York Times.



Steve Schmidt complained that the Gray Lady and other news organizations hadn't sufficiently scrutinized Barack Obama and Joe Biden, seizing on the ties of Biden's son, Hunter, to the credit card industry as a prime example.



To illuminate that connection, RNC communications director Danny Diaz sent out to reporters just now a piece he said "clearly states [Hunter Biden's] work for MBNA."



The story Republicans are hanging their hat on?



You guessed it, published in The New York Times on Sept. 13.
