re: #85 MJ

More disconcerting, at least to me, than whether the Washington Times got Obama’s law School wrong, is how the New York Times, a paper significantly more important the the Washington Times, keeps on not reporting the news:

Why did the press ignore the Van Jones scandal?

[Link: www.washingtonexaminer.com…]

Of course, the NYT has a history of not reporting news: Stalin, Castro, and the Holocaust all come to mind.

That is utter shite. The Holocaust was front page news in the NYT, as it was basically everywhere.

I’ll happily join in with you if you want to condemn the NYT for giving Maureen Dowd column space, or for the Jayson Blair scandal, or for shitty reporting on a host of issues— but let’s not leap off the diving board into BizarroWorld, ok? please.
It makes it too easy for people to dismiss legitimate criticism when other critics make shit up.
