Mr. Daragjati was caught on wiretapped phone calls later that night lying blue ugg boots about the circumstances of the arrest with his supervisor, including that it took four police officers to subdue the man and that residents had come to their windows to observe the arrest, prosecutors said. While off-duty, Mr. Daragjati separately operated a snow-removal and construction business, prosecutors said.
Prosecutors said Mr. Daragjati directed a fellow construction company owner in March to damage a pickup truck Mr. Daragjati owned, so that he could falsely file an insurance claim against that construction company owner’s commercial insurance.
In March, snowplow equipment that belonged to Mr. Daragjati was stolen from a truck parked near his residence, prosecutors said. Mr. Daragjati lured another man he suspected had stolen the equipment to a Staten Island parking lot and allegedly attacked him with a group of other men, prosecutors said. He threatened the man with a handgun and told him to return the equipment or pay him $5,000, prosecutors said.
“It feels like, and again this is my own personal opinion, that the media now recognizing that Cain is someone to be reckoned with in this race, are starting to take a closer look at him. When and how or if that is reflected in the tone of coverage cheap ugg boots sale that we can’t say yet,” Mr. Jurkowitz said.
While the overall tone of news media coverage of the candidates varied sharply over time, commentary in the blogosphere was much more consistent. “The blogs are much more static than the news coverage is,” Jurkowitz said. “If you look at the candidate’s tone in blogs, you’ll find they barely change from week to week which suggests basically people already have an opinion of them, they are restating those opinions over and over again. To some degree the blogs aren’t reacting to the day to day events of the campaign.”
While most Republican candidates fared worse in the blogs than at the hands of traditional media outlets, Ron Paul was an exception. Pew found his coverage in the blogosphere was the most favorable for any candidate – 48 percent positive and just 15 percent negative.
Among the traditional news sources, Rick Perry had the most flattering coverage over the five months the survey covered – 32 percent positive to 20 percent negative, with the balance being rated neutral. His positive coverage numbers dipped in mid-September and in the final week of the survey his negative reviews outnumbered the positive.
Coverage of Cain was only slightly more positive than negative – 28 percent versus 23 percent – over the entire period of the study. But his positive coverage rose sharply in October.
Mitt Romney’s coverage has been notable mostly for its consistency. At 26 percent positive and 27 percent negative, it is less favorable than the coverage accorded candidates Perry, Cain, or Michele Bachmann.
In each of the Pew study’s 23 weeks, President Obama’s negative coverage outran the positive by more than 20 percentage points. Over the study period, 9 percent of his coverage was positive while 34 percent was negative. The balance, Pew said, was neutral or a straight accounting of events. Obama got slightly better treatment in the blogosphere where 14 percent of the coverage was positive and 36 percent negative.
