NY Times Vilifies Returning Vets

In other news, the sun rose in the east.

If you can get them to print the “perspective” retraction, it’ll be somewhere near the Tank Macnamara comic, where no one can see it.

Megan McArdle, at the Atlantic, has a good report on this story, and the general level of innumeracy amongst reporters.

The NYT was able to do a study on news coverage of these stories, but not any kind of real study of what they purport now were they? kimsch's last blog post..Shovels Full

Bravo, Kate. Bravo.

In my neck of the woods, you can’t swing a dead cat without hitting a tofu-eatin’ Liberal, so it’s nice to hear a voice of reason.

I never thought I’d say this, but goddamn, I miss flyover country.

It's easier to create villains than treat victims. Maybe they should focus more on the lack of an appropriate mental health response for returning veterans facing serious PTSD issues. Nope. That's just not scandalous enough for them. jae's last blog post..Tell Me About Your Mother

At a time when the liberal press is desparate to generate some kind of subject the Democratic hopefuls can talk about in one voice, this may be just that.

Ever consider the fact that the NY Times is desperately searching for readers at this point? Let's face it, the printed media is becoming marginalized with each passing moment. And taking a ludicrous position such as what is described does have some shock value. *We're* talking about it, eh? Doesn't matter that the premise is full of turd muffins.
