a hint of yet another NYT work of fraud/fiction

One questionable decision of the New York Times was to apparently omit any reference to the fact that Richards is a board member of Planned Parenthood and other similar organizations, and a long time pro-abortion activist. Richards omits this significant fact about herself and writes the article as if she were just the average citizen. The editors at the Times must have known who Richards is, and they chose not to share this information with the readership. By saying nothing about the author's background, in essence the editors became co-conspirators with Richards in manipulating how the average person would read the story. (I went to the NYT site and couldn't find any statement about who Richards is, although I may have missed it.)
