Seems as if I get solicitations on a weeekly basis to subscribe to The Times. Never! I hope they and all the other liberal rags rot in hell. Their behavior (abject subservience) toward his fraudulancy was nothing less than groveling. Their conservative voice is Mr. Brooks, a conservative of the most mealy-mouthed stripe. The Wall Street Journal is about the best there is.

I think the late Abraham "A.M." Rosenthal would be deeply saddened by this--he was Editor-in-Chief of the paper for 11 years during its halcyon days. Rosenthal had a strict dictum that you can't editorialize on the actual story itself, and in fact his epitaph reads: He kept the paper straight. I just could not imagine the sadness he experienced as former Editor-in-Chief Howell Raines completely ruined the Times with the very biased reporting on the Augusta National Golf Club controversy and the Jayson Blair scandal.
Just finished this one two days ago.
