NYTimes Shut Out
Tom Brokaw is shocked, shocked that the Bush administration doesn't trust the NYTimes or its three-peat Friedman.
This isn't a paper that maintains even a semblance of objectivity. Is their anyone, friend or foe, that doesn't understand that the NYTimes has little interest in the actual truth? The people who hate the Times hate it for its bias. The people who like the Times like it for its bias. Is this unclear to anyone?

I need to take exception to the notion that those of us who like the Times like it for its bias. I like it despite its bias, simply because its depth and breadth of coverage is unmatched, at least in the US. Conservative friends who criticize my addiction to the Times can never answer the following - what's the alternative? USAToday? Yeah, right. The Journal? Not bad, but doesnt approach the Times in scope of coverage. Television? Fuhgeddaboudit, as they say here in Brooklyn. Frankly, I'm a bit at a loss for how people who don't read the Times can stay informed at all.
