Timesink for your indexing and ping list re the lying and propaganda spreader, the Ny Slimes.

[fightinJAG]

the newspaper weighed in with a whopper of a front-page piece last week, suggesting that Justice Department officials sabotaged sniper suspect John Allen Muhammad's imminent confession in Montgomery County.

Almost a year ago the lovable WashTimes was calling NYT's on its whoppers, which, I confess, were obvious. In this case, for example, it just did not seem reasonable that Justice officials would hose up one of the most important cases to this region in the last decade.

Unfortunately, NYT lies quickly make it into the public consciousness, and become difficult to dislodge with facts. Note how many people still believe the NYT whoppers about the Iraqi museum.

Baltimore Sun UM launches own probe of ex-reporter's work - ***N.Y. Times correspondent resigned this month for plagiarism; University to review 30 articles Blair wrote while a student at College Park - COLLEGE PARK -- The University of Maryland said today it will review former New York Times reporter Jayson Blair's work at the journalism school's news service, while faculty members were left wondering where their once top student went wrong. In a letter sent to students, faculty and alumni today, Journalism Dean Thomas Kunkel said the university plans to hire an editor to check 30 articles Blair wrote in 1995 as a reporter for the Capital News Service, Maryland's wire service staffed by journalism students.

Kunkel said he was "floored" by a lengthy Times story Sunday that detailed chronic plagiarism, fabrications and lying by Blair during his nearly four years with the newspaper. Blair, 27, who left the university without graduating, was a driven and talented student and journalist, Kunkel said, whose work did not arouse any suspicions among the faculty. In an interview, Kunkel said the news was "like a kidney punch," saying school officials were devastated that "one of our own would turn his back on every principle that we hold dear."***

The New York Slimes continues to sulk over the reality that the snipers were not Skoal-chewing in-bred rednecks who drove around in red pick-ups, complete with gun-rack and confederate flag. It just kills them and all the other liberals that the cold-blooded killers were two evil black guys who were Muslim and homosexual. And one an illegal alien to boot.

Good catch; congrats.

There's one angle to Jayson Blair's plagiarism that isn't getting the attention it deserves, IMO.

Plagiarism isn't just 'not nice', it's illegal, according to copyright laws.

The Left, of course, hates private property ownership the same as it hates armed citizenry. Private property ownership is the very basis of all our liberties, and being armed warns government not to attempt to take private property (all of it) by force.

The liberal media is ideologically committed to undermining private property ownership in this country.

For the New York Times to overlook Jayson's plagiarism is in keeping with the Times' ideology, and their attempts now to pass it all off as an 'error' rather than a crime. They don't see stealing privately owned property (using without permission) -- copyrighted material -- as a crime!

The professors in academia do it all the time, as well.
