I think the biggest power is getting issues on the
agenda.  This is a particularly important power in
small markets like Maine.  Certain issues get more
attention because the Portland Press Herald decides to
put the issue on the front page.  The AP picks up the
story and the radio and TV stations follow suit. 

It always amazed me that when I worked at the State
House that the things that everyone was talking about
in the building where often not the stories getting
the most coverage by the media.
