“Sorry. This is commentary dressed up as news reporting,” Baker said in an email sent at midnight, according to the Times.

That email would be appropriate if sent to MOST news outlets - maybe he could forward it to the NY TImes. Sheesh, and the TImes thinks this is news???

What's really telling is that the NYT somehow sees this as scandalous behavior by Baker when in fact it is spot on. If I were the WSJ, I would dump the political coverage and stick to business and finance. It has to be a major pain to find young political writers that aren't left of Lenin.
