[July 4th]

Someone sent me this story a few months back. It's the NY Times account of the Reagan assassination attempt written by Mr. Howell Raines himself. When you read it, you can see just how far the Times has fallen in the past 25 years, as it's really a perfect example of how to do a news story free of bias or personal opinion. Just the facts.

At 4:14 P.M, Mr. Haig, in a voice shaking with emotion, told reporters that the Administration's "crisis management" plan was in effect, and citing provisions for Presidential succession, Mr. Haig asserted that he was in charge.

Good article but Mr. Raines failed to question Haig's claim. ;-)
