The Times and the other major media outlets, who cannot see the bias on the wall, suffer the same denial that an alcoholic suffers. Like an alcoholic, the Times and its media brethern, will not acknowledge their problem until after they have hit "rock bottom," and even then they may refuse to recognize that they are the cause of their own demise. Without a 12 step recovery program, they will end up in the gutter, penniless, and smelling of puke.
