The NYT, as we know it today, must dry up and be driven out of business. I read that paper for more than 35 years during my commute into the city. Today, it’s fishwrap...run by a second rate family with a foolish, childish personal agenda. This piece on McCain ranks right up there with the one a couple of months ago that claimed Iraq and Afganistan vets were becoming crazed killers once they were back in civilian life. That story was debunked in less than 2 hours, showing that the homicide rate among those vets was one-fifth that of people in the same age bracket who had not served in harms way.
I’d settle for heads. The reporters and editors involved with this fiasco should be fired. In many ways this is worse than the Jayson Blair fraud.
