It would appear that the NYT wants to portray Jayson Blair as a loose cannon who just happened to be rolling around their decks for years, even in lead stories, and it certainly wasn't his managers' fault that nobody worried enough about his known blunders. Nothing to see here, Jayson's been fired and totally discredited, there's no one else to discredit, move along.

BTW, in reading my #6, please understand that Jayson is a total fraud, but he should have been tossed, or at least marginalized years ago. Why the self-vaunted NYT didn't do so is the real problem, and I'm glad to see them getting nailed by many for it.
