When polygamy in the family is and isn't news
The AP searches the Romney family tree to breathlessly reports his great- grandfather was a polygamist:
While Mitt Romney condemns polygamy and its prior practice by his Mormon church, the Republican presidential candidate's great-grandfather had five wives and at least one of his great-great grandfathers had 12.
But you'd have to read the UK Daily Mail to learn that Barack Obama's father was, too.
