Is the NY Times deliberately working to get republicans elected? |
|
They seem to be developing quite the track record.
1) They sat on damaging information about Bush's criminal activity, so he could get elected in 2004
2) They run a lame hit piece on McCain's alleged affair, to increase McCain's credibility with right wingnuts
3) Now they refuse to run his Op-Ed piece, so the repukes can push the "liberal media" lie
Seems to me, they are doing everything possible to try and keep the repukes in the White House. The only unknown, is why.

1. No, they refuse to run his op/ed piece |
|
because it didn't fit the definition of an op/ed piece and was merely another moronic campaign commercial. If mcsame were to actually write (or have a minion write) a real op/ed piece I'm sure they would be happy to run it.

2. Any organization that has William Kristol on the payroll is not our friend. |

3. I've wondered if they are for the whole "let's use the U.S. to redraw the Mideast map" concept. |

They sure were gung ho for the war and it's hard to believe they were that clueless.

4. The leadership of the NY Times is in it for power. They won't alienate the gvt and lose access. (nt) |
