it may not be a hitpiece, we dont know.
Settle down, we dont know if it is a hit piece or not. We should all boycott them regardless anyways.
Only liberal college professors in the middle west read the NYT, but the people in fly-over country will hear on TV about whatever the slimebergers have to print...and rack up some more votes for McCain.
Yes. I still read the Times for the obits only.
i’m not feeling good about this baby story
Ohio is in BAD shape politically....
My fish will get pissed, but I’ll cancel their subscription to the New York Times.
It would be interesting if the Right did a total boycott of NYT products, at the same time the Left boycotts MSNBC for de-anchoring Matthews and Olbermann.
As for circulation, I was recently at a small hotel in Utah. They GAVE me USA Today, and in the lobby was a stack of NYT, LAT, and some Chicago paper. That counts toward their circulation! There were probably as many papers as there were rooms.
This is why the Left does those big paper maiche heads for their parades and protests- lots and lots of raw material.
There will be no effective boycott. Palin sells. Democraps lie about her, we defend her, but she is always the topic. Most of the threads here are about Palin. The liberal hate machine is the same. There will be no boycott, if anything, sales will increase on that issue.
Are there enough conservatives still subscribing to the NYT to launch an effective boycott?
I should hope not.
What’s to expose’? The baby has Down’s Syndrome, which quite often occurs when “older” women have children, but not always. Actually I thought Sarah was youngish to have a Down Syndrome child.
Boycotts are a tactic of liberals, and they generally don’t work.
A boycott is just too easy for me. I get my sports from Yahoo Sports and Barclay's Premier League and my Comics from Yahoo - featuring The Born Loser in honer of the NYT. I periodically visit the graveyard for the obits. Why would I spend money on a Newspaper just to elevate my blood pressure???

Obama Says A Baby Is A Punishment
Obama: “If they make a mistake, I don’t want them punished with a baby.”
“..do freepers still subscribe to their local liberal rags just to get the sports page, obituaries and comics?”
—
There is no need to subsidize the garbage coming from the left. I cancelled my fishwrapper subscription several years ago but I still like to hold the comics and sports sections in my hands.
Buy your paper from a vendor or a machine and you won’t be a subscriber - that’s what the NYT and other slime merchants trade on, subscriber lists. That’s how they get their ad dollars. Don’t play their game. Walk to your local machine (free exercise) and put some coins in - you have your paper but they don’t have you on their subscriber lists.
