Like your tagline, and appreciate that cartoon!

[Mad Dawg]

My daughter got me a DVD of Belushi’s greatest SNL hits for Xmas. (I have a FABULOUS daughter!)

Two bits have Belushi as a commentator getting increasingly enraged as he “comments” on the News. He finally convulses and throws himself out of his chair and off screen.

I think the NYT is channeling not Belushi, but the character he portrayed. Facts ain’t got nothing to do widdit!

Well, if the paper wants to talk body counts....

Illegal aliens murder12 Americans dailyDeath toll in 2006 higher than soldiers killed MidEast

But the paper'd rather slur our servicemen and women with some incredibly shoddy reporting.

And hats off to the folks who caught them at it.

[JoanVarga]

Heh. Good times, that.

On a brighter note, I may be getting back into the printing bidness. It's just my type of work!

"All the News That Fits Our Agenda."

Of course, a retraction wouldn't fit their agenda, so don't expect one. B*&%*&&s!

When I originally read their story I knew it was propaganda to cause the general population to fear vets. Why? So they wouldn't squawk too much when they started taking all the guns from vets, and refusing to grant them a clearance for purchasing one. So that makes the NYT an agent of the sicko gun grabbers. It seems some in government have an uncommon fear of armed vets.

Something surprising for our vets must be coming down the pike.

[Just A Nobody]

it became clear that the Times had engaged in demonstrably erroneous and false reporting.

“It’s obvious that the New York Times has an agenda of undermining the missions of our troops in the War on Terror

Surely it ain't so! I loathe the enemedia!

[cake_crumb]

Erroneous is to an outright lie what homocide bombers are to activists.

[PGalt]

Worthless PROPAGANDISTS are worth another BTTT!

[Dustbunny]

Just the MSM speading more lies they will never own up to once they are out of the news cycle.

I loved this one:

“Perhaps the shameful staff of The New York Times has run out of war-time secrets to publish for America’s enemies to read, because now they’ve resorted to an all-out smear campaign of America’s finest men and women, who have served this country bravely and with distinction.”

[Jimmy Valentine's brother]

Yes, TNYT is trying for another myth hold over from the Vietnam War. That those that served were ticking time bombs. This story is right out of Stolen Valour.

[LearnsFromMistakes]

is it MSNBC that has a feature that highlights when the media gets it wrong? I doubt they would talk about this...

[cake_crumb]

"Hey! Nobody told the NYT that math would be required."

Sure they knew. Al Gore's been tutoring them.

[Robert A Cook PE]

Oh wait.

Real numbers don’t match the “war stories” written by the MSM?

Quick! Print it/re-print it/televise it before anybody else checks the statistics!

[Eric in the Ozarks]

MSNBC and NYT are joined at the hip. Don’t expect an assignment editor to put anyone on this beat.

[cake_crumb]

Love that toon. Saved to my collection. :-)

"Of course, a retraction wouldn't fit their agenda, so don't expect one. B*&%*&&s!"

Neither would a slander suit, but it WOULD get their - and the public's - attention.

Thankfully, their lies fall only on the ears of their few beloved readers. I know of NO ONE who reads the NY Slimes. At the local book store, they only have about 5 copies of it each day. I have rarely seen it sold out. Even our own local rag is run by liberal slime, and it is in a world of hurt. They are always calling, asking if you want to take out a home delivery subscription. The last time they called, I asked the woman, “do you have my name in your current subscriptions?” She said no. That is why I am calling. “I asked her did she not think there was a reason that I was not already a subscriber” and before she could respond, I told her, “I am not a subscriber to your trash, liberal, run by socialist slime balls, because I am an American, and I do not support the Marxists Dimocrats who support abortion, support the Islamic murderers, and are anti military.” There was total silence on the other end of the line. She could not say anything. I don’t think she had ever had anyone go off on her like that before. Then I told her, “don’t ever call my house again asking me to take out your stinking communist newspaper.” Click, she hung up.

They’ve (the media) already exhumed and dusted off the “insane, homeless veterans” story from Viet Nam....so this shouldn’t surprise us.
