POST STEALS A MARCH ON NATION

The Bangkok Post were extremely quick off the mark yesterday with their front page image of President Obama swearing the oath of allegiance. Considering this happened around 12.15am that's pretty good going. The Nation is playing catch-up on the story today with its front page image of Barack and Michelle dancing at the Inauguration Ball.
For the record both stories and images were supplied by agencies. In the case of The Bangkok Post they used a Reuters story with AFP image while The Nation used Associated Press copy and a Bloomberg image.
