Yep, Blair was just an abnormal and unusual loose canyon roaming around lying for years.

What got him fired was his plagerizing not his lying. He was dumb enough to plagerize and get caught.

You and I know that if the Slimes fired every lying reporter, editor, publisher and oped writer at the NY Slimes, they would only have blank paper with a few ads, no stories.

I'm not "outraged" because I suspect many journalists do not much different than this guy.

What struck me was the great space and ardor given by the NY Times to this guy. Even gave his picture so everybody will know him by face. I've read about such incidents before, usually they're treated with an apology and retraction.

This guy was "exposed" with trumpets blaring. I thought it was distasteful and was wondering if there are ulterior motives or emotions involved.

I agree with you Grampa. Is anyone really surprised by this paper?
