Why? Drudge was the one who phucked up.

I read the New York Times every day. I consistently read and
enjoy their Op
Ed. Yes, it is just about always written from a liberal
perspective. But it
is rarely wrong, and certainly never libelous.

And yes, I am referring to the McCain thing. Yes it is no

You should have read the question and answer session that
the Times ran a
few days after the story. All of the writers and editors
involved with the
McCain stories answered some very pointed questions from the
readers. It
helped explain why the story ran, how it ran, etc.

Good stuff.

I dunno...I like the Times....maybe I'm just biased because
I love their
xword puzzles so much.
