Walter Duranty's Pulitzer still hangs in a place of honor in the lobby of the NYT.

If they really want to clean house, they'd take it down, and issue an apology to the millions that Uncle Joe buried in the Ukraine.

But that's too hard. It is a lot easier to dump on a black guy, who just did on a small scale what Duranty and Raines did/still does on a grand scale. Rules are for the little people.

I'm sure you're right, that must be part of it. But it still seems odd. When has the NYTimes ever been concerned about truth or honesty? Honestly? They aren't.

And I think this cannot be the first time when they've discovered one of their reporters has pulled this sh##. So, why such intense investigation and dramatic exposure? I just think there is something going on. The NYTimes is nothing if not focused...what is the focus? This man Blair is a sacrifice to something, because he isn't, as you say, all that important in the larger scheme of things.

Don't forget Matthew Jeffries and the NYT editors assuring American readers that Fidel Castro, before and after coming down the mountain from his revolutionary redoubt, was not a communist.

The NYT is a lying ragsheet.
