Although many of the images are striking and well worth viewing, there's also a dose of the liberal politics of the New York Times on display in its "Year in Pictures" in today's paper.
The very first photo sets the Times' tone, depicting a Ferguson demonstrator with hands up confronted by a heavily-armed phalanx of police. But it is the accompanying commentary in another photo that really gives the Times' game away. Seen from the inside of a car, the text reads [emphasis added]: "Ignacio, an illegal immigrant, pulled into a convenience store in Tulsa, where a simple traffic stop could lead to deportation." Well, yes. Be the infraction large or small, drawing police attention can lead to the discovery that someone is in the country illegally and thus subject to deportation.

The Times apparently regrets that being in the country illegally subjects a person to deportation. There are an estimated billion people who would like to live in the US. How many would the Times like to admit?
Ping to Today show list: and Happy New Year to my fellow FReepers!
I would allow 500 million in...as long as everyone on the upper west side has to put up at least one of the families.
I wish they would change the Panther logo. Panther Brewing Company is the beer the Three Stooges brewed!lol
5. Panther Pilsner Beer – The Three Stooges
The slapstick comedy trio worked at the fictitious Panther Pilsner Beer company in their famous Three Little Beers short movie. Interestingly, this beer inspired a real-life imitation for some time. Packaged in retro-styling, the beer was sold as The Three Stooges Beer, from the Panther Brewing Company. It doesn’t seem like the brewery is still in operation, unfortunately.
The excellent short movie featuring Panther Pilsner Beer is available for online viewing:
