"Raines thinks oil and gasoline prices are high because of corporate greed and price manipulation.” It makes me wonder how on Earth these people ever rise to positions of power.

FR does not allow this magazine to be excerpted.
“Raines thinks oil and gasoline prices are high because of corporate greed and price manipulation.”
That would make him lobotomized.
Harold Raines opinion is worth less than 1 Carbon Credit.
Isn’t he the disgraced former editor of the NYT?
Who did Howell’s fact checking? Jayson Blair?

Too bad big Hal didn't run the NYT as well as he runs his mouth.
I have a question!!! If its not legal to excerpt an article here, is it legal to post a link to that article without any of it being copied/pasted?
His successor David Shipley is making Harold look like a hero— NYTstock is down 82%. Yah gotta love it.
Or, at least, an identification of exactly which magazine is cited...
Here it is:
“Crude Reporting”
by Howell Raines
Conde Nast Portfolio, August 2008

It's pointless to engage in argument with somebody with whom you share no common ground. Other than sharing American citizenship with Howell Raines, I can't imagine any other common ground I might find with him.
