Even if they charged normal rates, it’s still all in the family.

The sad part is that this will not matter one whit to most dems.

Lord, I hope the Slimes feels the heat more than ever for their biased despicable practices.

"The advertising folks did not see the content of the ad before the rate was quoted," They didn't know it was from MOVE-ON, either, I bet.
Yeah, right.

"The advertising folks did not see the content of the ad before the rate was quoted," Didn't have to, they knew it was from MoveOn.org and was anti-America crap. I guess it just saved the New York Times the trouble of writing a front page story.

"We do not distinguish the advertising rates based on the political content of the ad," Mathis told Reuters.Iraqi Information Minister redux.

The General said yesterday at his presser that he was sent the poem by Kipling, called “IF”, and it helped him thru the shocking move-on crap.
To: Schnucki
There are some Class B stockholders who would disagree, I think. If the story pans out, they will demand that the family compensate the Times for the cost of their political subsidy, I suspect.

It’s a twofer!
They get to print ugly, libelous anti-american slime without having to worry about getting sued, and they get paid for it too!

“and the (New York) Times is liberal...”
They’ve never denied that. In fact, they pretty much admit it, and lament the fact that the rest of us aren’t like them.
To: SkyPilot
Gotta give a nod to Guiliani’s approach to this. I won’t vote for him in 08, but I do like his stance.

"The quandary the Times gets stuck in is they don't want to admit you can buy an ad for that rate, no matter who you are," Jarvis said, noting that with print advertising revenues in decline newspapers generally did offer big discounts.
This seems the likeliest answer to me. Ideological sympathy or not, a business like the Times isn't going to pass up ad revenue unless it has to.
To: SkyPilot
The ad didn’t run on a “stand-by” rate. It ran precisely on the day the General made his first appearance.

The Times’ ad was one small part of the depressing spectacle put on by the Left, including the Democratic Party. If they were capable of shame, they’d blush.

The NYT is effectively paying for half of the ad. They're partners with the ad's creators, no matter how they try to spin it.

The Dems have ceased to matter to me at all.

Come out of the closet, Slimes. Everyone knows it, it’s OK, just admit it...

That’s ok... it’s the moderates that we want to stand and take notice.
The libs are too retarded to actually change their stripes.
