Speaking of arguing against interest…This article shall be there defense against cries of bias from now until Election Day. “Bias? Remember that one time we wrote about Barack Obama’s ads critically? Now, leave me alone while I investigate Sarah Palin’s aunt’s citation for hunting out of season.”
It touches on the egregious Spanish-language ad about immigration and the dishonest ad about Social Security, each about a week too late, but credit where credit is due. I have a feeling the timing may have had more to do with the McCain campaign’s blasting of the NYT as an openly partisan, pro-Obama organization just days ago.
Democrats quoted in the story profess to be pleased to see Obama fighting back in “eye-for-an-eye” fashion because, after all, who ever really bought that “new politics” stuff anyway? I wonder if the reporters on this story, Jim Rutenberg and Julie Bosman, get to sit at the cool-kids table in the Sulzberger lunch room anymore?
