NYT: The McCain Article "Ask the newsroom"
The McCain Article


Published: February 21, 2008

A recent New York Times article examined a number of decisions by Senator John McCain that raised questions about his judgment over potential conflicts of interest. The article included reporting on Mr. McCain’s relationship with a female lobbyist whose clients often had business before the Senate committee led by Mr. McCain. Since publication of the article, The Times has received over 2,000 comments, many of them criticizing the handling of the article. Editors and reporters who worked on the article will be answering questions on Friday. Please send yours to askthetimes@nytimes.com.

1. Classic case of attacking the messenger if you ask me
Hannity and Rush were all over this today denigrating the NYTs, their favorite liberal rag to rag about. They and others in their own echo chamber have been trying to take down the NYTs down for years now, it seems. Hannity had Gingrich on today and the irony was palpable.

2. They've been panicking - people are rejecting the fruits of Reaganism.
Their entire power structure is crumbling around the ears. They are very dangerous right now.
