Great job....there is no doubt that the New York Times is a part of the Unholy Alliance.....
***********************************************
A Must Read:
Unholy Alliance :
Radical Islam and the American Left (Hardcover)
by David Horowitz
**************************************
Vastly Illuminating, September 25, 2004
I had long wondered why people on the Left had the propensity to speak more positively about people who would slit their throats than they do about their own country, which affords them more freedom and opportunity than anywhere else. David Horowitz has answered that question thoroughly and convincingly in his Unholy Alliance. Where I felt bewildered and confused, I now feel crystal clear. Unholy Alliance is such a great book.
It begins with the leftist movements at the beginning of the 20th Century, and works its way up to the present day, exploring the anti-American attitude of these movements in detail. Horowitz shows that the enemies of the US back then are largely the same group today, operating under the same misperceptions, making the same mistakes, and pursuing the same impossible utopia.
Individual chapters are included on the Patriot Act (I was persuaded that it is a GOOD thing); the democratic flip-flop on Iraq once G.W. Bush implemented what they agreed with Clinton needed to be done; the driving components of the current anti-war movement; as well as chapters on individual personalities who are major spokespeople of the Left. Horowitz covers a lot of ground, and he covers it concisely and clearly. Unholy Alliance is richly informative without ever being boring or plodding.
This book is so illuminating that I simply cannot do justice to it here. I love people who reason so clearly that they help me get my own reasoning clear. Horowitz is just that type of person! In the terrain of mindless clichés (no-blood-for-oil, etc.), he is a breath of real fresh air.

Bravissima Fedora!
One does wish for the return of real newspapers. The NYT was not allowed in many Republican homes in my youth because of their blatant pro-communism.
At least in those days there were other papers. Now we have the Washington Times and ....

But thankfully some of us have found alternate sources via. the Internet.

Good post. Never hurts to rehash the sad facts as to why the L/MSM lean as they do to the far left in most cases.

--President Dwight Eisenhower, referring to the New York Times
We also need to start mitigating the influence of the Washington Post within the beltway.

Unc,
The Internet is indeed powerful, and in large part responsible for the diminishing of the MSM's power.
HOWEVER, TV news is still more powerful than the internet, and TV news flows from the news services ... and the newspapers.
A very significant portion of the electorate is computer-illiterate (not to mention a segment that is all-around illiterate) and let's face it, there is a lot of nuttiness on all sides of the internet.
Nah, the MSM is very sick, but it ain't dead.
