New York Times - LYING neo-con WHORES - deconstructed in one paragraph...

In our previous post, we attempted to deconstruct the DECADE, dozen-years-plus neo-con agenda of the New York Times. At every turn, they have boosted and trumpeted invasions, stolen elections, stonewalled investigations, promoted looting-of-the treasury tax cuts for billionaires as economic policy; they have ignored perjury and obstruction of justice re the "outing" of a CIA undercover agent by the White House to smear and intimidate whistleblowers; and they consistently WHITEWASH or ignore or bury deep in their pages dozens of other administration and Republican scandals, including the connections between then president Bush and ENRON Chairman Ken Lay that were far more SCANDALOUS than any Clinton connection to the "Whitewater" routine real estate flop that was only a tiny part of the Republican dominated "DEREGULATIONS" that stiffed American taxpayers with the TRILLION DOLLAR S&L debacle.
Below, a reader comments to Stephen Schlesinger's delusional op-ed, saluting the neo-con New York Times as some sort of paragon of progressive, 'small-d' democratic America.

RASPBERRIES TO THE NEW YORK TIMES http://www.huffingtonpost.com/stephen-schlesinger/kudos-to-the-new-york_b_73122.html?load=1&page=2#comments

The idea that the Times can rescue itself from journalistic ignominy with a couple of politically correct and ineffective editorials is absurd. You say The Times has "at moments given pause?"

Moments? In total, more like decades, such as the years-long persecution of the innocent Wen Ho Lee, the years-long flagellation of the Clintons over non-existent Whitewater "scandals", the repeated false "reporting" in the years before and after the Iraq invasion (not to mention the internal whitewashing of editorial responsibility for the lies put into print) , the character assassination of Al Gore during the 2000 campaign, and even now the Times's Pentagon reporter unquestioningly repeats the flagrant lies about Iran supplying Iraqi insurgents with IEDs and other weaponry.

"Imagine this country without this paper." ? One can only wish! For 7 years The Times's news pages have been to Bush what Pravda was to Brezhnev. Occasional remonstrances from their op-ed pages from the likes of Krugman and Dowd and a few editorials mean nothing compared to the pro-Republican, anti-Democratic propaganda that has permeated their news pages for over a decade.
