I love this...Both of those papers publish 365 days a year, and each day
provide how many 10s of thousands of words. The Post had a scandal in, what,
1980? And the Times has been snookered a couple times, and we're talking
about their "style of reportage?" Get real here - their style of reportage
is to provide astoundingly good news coverage day in and day out - and once
and a while psychos - in the case of the Post and Ms. Cooke and the Times
and Jason Blair - or a self-aggrandizing careerist with a political agenda,
make it through the screening process. Big whoop. ;-)
