"Would someone named Hillary have something to do with the Slimes printing this story? Isn't the Times the official Clinton newspaper of record?"
Could it be that the writer of this article, Jodi Kantor, is the offspring of Mickey Kantor, big wheel in the Clinton administration and partner in former democrat national party chairman Chuck Manatt's law firm?
You may very well be correct, but also please note that Kantor is a fairly common Jewish name.
