I just went to the http://www.economist.com/world/unitedstates/displayStory.cfm?story_id=15324259. No Bias here. NOT. It took only the first paragraph in the article concerning his win to say: "a Republican former model". Is that the only note-worthy accomplishment Scott Brown has? It must be. The article does not point out any other accomplishment.
I found some other things Scott Brown has done. He joined the Massachusetts National Guard at 19, is still active in the reserve and holds a rank of Lieutenant Colonel. He has been deployed to Kazakhstan and Paraguay. His political career started in 1992, has been a state senator since 2004 winning re-election a number of times and is on various committees with regards to education and veteran affairs. He is a family man, Christian, and an athlete who won awards and trophies for triathlons and duathlons.

Oh, by the way, he has a very brief modeling career. In 1982 while a law student at the age of 22 he posed for Cosmopolitan.
Maybe the unbiased article should have said:
"a Republican family man who serves our country in both the military and in public service while maintaining an active athletic lifestyle."
Nope, forget that. "a Republican former model" sells more.

Except I'm not buying it.
For the record. They are not the only one that emphasized his modeling experience. A quick google search this morning for the phrase "Scott Brown" "Former Model" turned up 2650 hits.
