Fuck the Times

"In another example of why the New York Times' status as an icon of 'liberal media' is so puzzling, the paper's initial coverage of Sen. Russ Feingold's March 12 proposal to censure George W. Bush for his warrantless wiretapping ran on page 17, and the report on Democrats' reaction to Feingold's proposal was printed on page 24, but news that Republicans 'have found a new rallying cry in the dreams of liberals about censuring' Bush makes the front page. As Eric Boehlert's observed, 'Throughout the Bush presidency there's been a very simple formula for defining what's news—if Republicans say it's news, than it is.'"
