The NY Times used to be a great newspaper. I had a subscription for years. It was a wonderful compliment to The Wall Street Journal.
Like so many in the left, they went over the cliff the night that Al Gore couldn't win Tennessee.
Today, the newspaper is nothing but the left wing chapter of the Dem party.
Wonder why they are losing readers and advertising revenue? You can't blame this one exclusively on people not reading newspapers. The NY Post or NY Daily News do not have the same readership problems.
Scott Johnson has a great post about it:
"Not one Times columnist expressed serious concern about Obama entering into a high-dollar land deal with Rezko, a man he knew to be under federal investigation and now known to all as a convicted felon.
Though apparently not worried about Obama’s judgment, the polemical trio of Bob Herbert, Paul Krugman and Frank Rich are apoplectic about the prospects of Palin moving to Washington."
Yes, we want our media to ask tough questions and investigate our current or future leaders.
Is The NY Times doing that? I don't think so. Back to Scott:
"The Times’ unbridled hysteria over Palin has undoubtedly “raised profound questions” about the paper’s judgment in the minds of voters.
Palin, like any politician, has failings worthy of examination, but the sheer level of deranged panic only batters the paper’s already-diminished reputation.
By savaging her, the Times and its mainstream media peers actually could help the woman who strikes such fear in their hearts.
Once this initial wave of attacks subsides, Palin may well still be smiling, still exuding the can-do attitude at the core of her appeal. The more desperate the media get, the classier she looks.
Just don’t expect that story line to sneak into the Times."
It's a total meltdown over at The NY Times!
P.S. No one does it better than O'Reilly. Check out his reaction to the NY Times:
