The New York Times is the New York Post for college grads. It titillates: it posts lurid pictures of Spitzer's hooker, hires Kristol just to piss people off and send off piles of letters-the editor,and, finally, selects pro-war crazies to review the Iraq war and why, you ask?
Clicks, fans, Yes clicks. You click the page and the neo-con Sulzberger gets ad money. Seems like some hedge fund wants to buy the Times and they like the digital version of the paper. So, the more crazies Sulzberger puts on your screen, the more clicks, the better the Times does.
You want reality, good reporting, screw it, just click and shut up!
