The RN&O can only produce so much chicken salad. Also, the RN&O did cover how the LAX scandal was hammering Duke University.

Yeah I misspoke when I called the N&O a "cheerleader" for Nifong. KC Johnson says its reporters have uncovered and reported more than a few items embarrassing to Nifong, and I defer to Johnson on all matters involving this case. The "cheerleader" was the head of the editorial page, Stephen Ford, who wrote a column in support of Nifong some months ago, since which, as more revelations have been made, he's kept his own counsel on the case.
Duke deserves to be hammered, for the way they threw these young men under the bus. Broadhead and crew have not come close to atoning for that. And the crew is pretty large. There were something like 80 faculty that signed that letter, early on. I wonder if that web site is still up, in the Diversity Studies Dept, or some such.
