WASHINGTON, October 21, 2008As The New York Times increasingly comes under fire for an October 18 story that delved into Cindy McCains personal life, a prominent critic of the paper is calling for a boycott of what he terms Americas newspaper of wretched. Don Feder, the editor of the Boycott The New York Times website http://boycottnyt.com, says the lengths that The Times went to in order to trash Mrs. McCain is further proof of a relentless pro-Obama bias at the newspaper.
How low will The New York Times go to trash John McCain and his wife Cindy? Think the bellies of snakes lower than which you cannot go, writes Feder in an article posted October 20 at BoycottNYT.com. He adds, We will wait in vain for The Times to unleash its investigative pit bulls on the personal lives of Barack and Michelle Obama.
Noting that the story focused on Cindy McCains previously reported, past addiction to painkillers, Feder takes The Times to task for neglecting to probe certain aspects of Barack Obamas drug use, such as 1. Who supplied Obama with drugs when he was an addict? 2. What substances did he use besides cocaine? 3. When did his addiction end?
Writing about a recent editorial in which The Times accuses the McCain campaign of entering the dark territory of racism and xenophobia, but offering no evidence to support the charge Feder says McCain could legitimately have made an issue of Obamas 19-year association with anti-American demagogue Jeremiah Wright, but has thus far refrained from doing so, for fear of inciting racial passions.
Feder declares, As the campaign winds down to the last two weeks, The Times becomes increasingly reckless in its charges and biased in its reporting.

Notifying this website of a New York Times boycott is like asking a vegetarian website to boycott bacon-wrapped veal.
That’s an excellent question! Yes, you can boycott their website — they make money from online advertisements, as well as print ads and subscriptions. You can also take it a step further and boycott the Times’ advertisers; we’ll have a list of their top advertisers up at BoycottNYT.com in the coming weeks.
Living Room Leftists!! Great appellation for the Obamas and Ayerses and their close pals.
It was a treat to be able to call and tell the operator that I was cancelling my subscription (Sunday only) because the way they treated Cindy McCain was unacceptable...
Been doing that for decades now.
I can’t boycott the Slimes any more than I do already.
Progressive, GEICO, U Phoenix Online, any Time-Warner product, Oprah, and CostCo similarly make the list.
How about Obammas admitted illicit cocaine use. Is the cocaine use what causes the stuttering/stammering. He’s got to get help.
Does this mean the gloves are off with Michelle my Belle? Let the smearing began.
I’ll ignore the NY Times even more!
Umm, I’m pretty sure nearly every Freeper already boycotts the NY Times.
