The Washington Bureau (sic??) Chief for the Straits Times, Roger Minton is a very interesting character.
He got badly burned during the election campaign. In the few weeks leading up to the November elections, he wrote article after article about how Kerry was going to win and how the Dems had a very good chance of retaking the Senate and possibly the House.
Now the Straits Times is owned by the government in a round about way, and the government and the Lees (Lee Kwan Yew, the founder of Singapore and his son, the current prime minister) were very much hoping for a Bush victory.
Needless to say, after the election Roger had quite alot of egg on his face. Indeed he was publicly mocked by many public officials for his inaccurate articles.
As a result, Minton is giving Bush and the GOP alot better press. In fact, last week he had a massive article on why Bush and the GOP are actually doing alot better than the American press would like to admit. He even wrote that he thought the GOP would pick up quite a few seats in the Senate, the House, and in state Governorships in 2006.
I'm going to have to check out the Straits Times - if it is an online publication. This Roger Minter guy may now have about the most honest take in among the Old Media types.
