Look. I completely agree with you. You just had one fact wrong, and my feeling is that as conservatives we're not ever allowed to have anything wrong. Someone who read what you wrote might repeat it as fact to some wild-eyed leftie who then triumphantly pulls out a copy of the Saturday Times.

I only look at the Times these days for the purposes of derision. As you point out, today's (Sunday's) edition is a ripe target. The front page has a story about Iraq which is news I guess. But after that everything is a joke. The Getty Museum story is dwarfed by one about overcrowding in African jails accompanied by a large photo, datelined Malawi! There's an article about Google, about people looking for evidence that the to be dreaded Avian Flu has reached the US to replace the great West Nile crisis. And lastly there is an article about an island that floats around a pond near Springfield, Mass. This is apparently not a new phenomena and so only qualifies as news in the sense that the folks at the Times just discovered it.

Paris is confined to a brief, poorly written story on page 3 with no accompanying photo, which seems to blame the continuing unpleasantness on Interior Minister Sarkozy.
