The point is that the NYT is over the top. The fact that the skit calls them out directly rather than the oblique media is quite a statement in itself.

Of course the NYT is over the top. But would it have been possible to make fun of the NYT without suggesting that Todd Palin has committed incest with his daughters? I cannot find any humor in this skit.

I think you make a good point. I still think the skit is an attack on the NYT but it is true that Obama exists as a unique form of communication privilege.

We are not allowed to entertain negative thoughts about Obama— or else we are racists.

That is the tragedy for the nation and even Obama who is increasingly clueless because he is never subject to fair criticism.
