Biggest advantage: Releasing a story a few days before an election will ensure massive coverage and good ratings for the TV station
Biggest political advantage: Those who oppose gay marriage make sure that the last thing people from Colorado have on their mind when going into the voting booth is gay people are drug-using, sex fiends.
Possible political advantage, but doubtful: People will consider this to be one more strike against a corrupt and morally bankrupt right-wing and will vote Democrat. Very doubtful, though.
