NASA: sad but true graph

Hemant Mehta sent me a link to this graph from GraphJam:

It’s a joke (duh), but I’d say that’s true for the mainstream media. On blogs, though, it’s a different story. After all, Cassini, MESSENGER, Hubble, Spitzer, Chandra – these all get positive coverage here. And APOD has tons of NASA shots, and it’s the biggest astronomy/space site on teh interwebs.

Blogs rule.
