Major papers ignore Bush’s Iraq signing statement.

On Monday, President Bush issued a signing statement on the National Defense Authorization Act. Dan Froomkin of the Washington Post rips the lack of media news stories on Bush’s neglect of the Constitution:

Looking for a news story about all this in your morning paper? You won’t find one in The Washington Post, the New York Times, the Los Angeles Times or the Wall Street Journal.

As Froomkin noted, the only major paper to cover the Iraq signing statement Boston Globe.

UPDATE: The New York Times does criticize the signing statement in an op-ed today, but it does not devote a news story to the issue. More coverage in today’s Progress Report.
