BroJoeK did not post this article. I did. If you can't be civil please take a hike. I have posted hundreds of articles from the New York Times over the last year. It would be tedious if every one of them turned into a diatribe against Duranty. The article is not about the Times, it is in the Times.
So what is your take on the situation in China in January 1939?
Yeah, BroJoeK was real "civil" saying the crap he did, right? As for who posted the article, it didn't really make a difference. I was responding to what BroJoeK wrote in his post to me.
I take it that you don't understand what Homer has been doing here, posting daily articles from 70 years ago?
From time to time, Homer's postings DO include articles from Walter Duranty, and whenever that happens, HUGE numbers of Freepers zero in their rhetorical weapons, and fire for effect on Duranty and the Times.
But you must be NEW to the anti-Duranty club, right? And you just can't hold your fire until there's an actual target in sight, can you?
A bad case of premature expostulation, eh?
By the way, you'll be happy to learn that I take a certain amount of pride in being called an "idiot" by obvious geniuses, such as yourself. ;-)
