The Most Comical Hypocrites of All, the New York Times
22nd November 2013
I noted earlier today that many politicians, pundits and newspapers have been hypocrites on the filibuster, favoring it when their party is in the minority and opposing it when their party controls the Senate. But of all the hypocrites, the most shameless must be the editorial board of the New York Times. Have they forgotten that Google exists? Are they unaware that anyone can search their web site and see what they wrote about an issue when the shoe was on the other foot? Or are they so resigned to being known as partisan hacks that they just don’t care?
That the New York Times are a bunch of partisan hacks comes as no surprise — and hasn’t for at least sixty years. That their target reader has the memory of a two-year-old — Look, squirrel! — comes as no surprise, either.
