THE NEW YORK TIMES DOES SOME MORE P.R. WORK FOR THE WHITE HOUSE

The New York Times, in a breathless "exclusive" from unnamed "government officials," once again dutifully does the P.R. work for the White House. They swallow an implausible story, tossed to them like a dog bone, fashioned to protect "the President." Of course, two BuzzFlash readers saw through it in a minute, and these readers aren't getting paid what New York Times transcriptionists (aka journalists) and editors earn. We're sure of that.

Regarding: B.S. Alert. The New York Times Thinks This is Some Sort of Exclusive, But It's More of "Protect the President Leaking": "Ashcroft Learned of Agent's Alert Just After 9/11 but Bush Was Not Told"
