Just when you thought the New York Times could not be any more partisan, biased and hypocritical, they go and pull a stunt that would make Janeane Garofalo blush.

Aw, c’mon. Are ya really gonna make me click the link? Gimme something to chew on, would’ya?
The NYT never reported anything about Van Jones until he resigned.
a story lamenting the mainstream’s ignorance/tamping down of negative news re the left. That NYT for example didn’t print anything about vann jones until after he was fired...
"So let’s just call this latest round of bias and hypocrisy, one more self-inflicted mainstream media wound – one of many that sooner or later will finish them off."
That, along with alternative avenues of news pretty much explains why the MSM is crashing. Primarily, they will destroy their own industry because their ideology is more important than their integrity.
That's a "stunt"? And, why just the NYT? The entire MSM participated in the news black-out about Jones from day one.
Now, they're all in the unenviable position of having to explain to their viewers how this Van Jones controversy just "up and happened" without them seeing it coming.
Even the most hypnotized MSM watchers will scratch their heads and wonder why their trusted MSM didn't know that Jones was a racist, America-hating Communist.
Thanks for the synopsis.
obama is the press's waterloo.
marxism [vann jones, capntax, healthcare] is 0bama's waterloo
0bama is the liberals' waterloo.

Also from the article;
“The “Birthers” are bad. The “9/11 Truthers” are worse.”
I'm with you. FR is becoming blogger central. If they don't give me a good chunk of the story I don't click the link. No matter how interesting it might be.
I’m with ya. But with all the differing rules about posting I kinda get it that some are squeamish about posting content.
just sayin...
but i hate it too...
in her case isn't that called diaper rash?
Or, apparently, even their profitability. These companies are losing their shareholder's shirts.
If you are posting from your own blog you decide how much to post. They want the hits. I don't know if they get paid or if it's just bragging rights for hits.
I've gotten into the same habit. I don't expect someone to post the entire content of a linked article, but Geez Louise...give me enough to at least know what the darn article is about.
I'll gladly click the link to read the balance of a really excellent article. I do it all the time. But, if a poster wants me to follow their link, they've got to leave some bait.
He’s a commie, Bernard; what’s he doing in the administration any more than a Nazi? Commies ok, Nazis not? I don’t get it.
Windflier, I don’t think the viewers of the MSM will notice anything. These people are brain dead. I honestly think, and have said many times, that if the Democrats/Liberals ran a sack of dog $hi_ as a candidate they’d vote for it.
Unfortunately not.....all you need to do is look at the 2006 and 2008 election results to see that they still wield the big stick.
Is Bernie the FReeper who posted? With a Slovakian flag?.... he he he maybe i don’t understand enough about the whole blog thing. I just do FR...
