The New York Times has long since stopped masquerading as a real
newspaper, and seems content to sashay as the ideology driven whore it is.
Still, it is unsettling to see this strumpet - never beautiful in my view,
but not without certain charms - strutting about, toothless, and little more
than a public nuisance. Maybe it's time to lock her up for good.
Brit Hume has more.
The day after Ronald Reagan died, the Washington Post ran a front-page
banner headline saying -- "Ronald Reagan Dies. Fortieth President Reshaped
American Politics." Four stories on Reagan were below it.
The Washington Times devoted its entire front page -- with three stories --
to Reagan.
But to the New York Times, Reagan's death was only worth one three-column
headline, saying Reagan -- "fostered cold-war might and curbs on
government."
Again today, the Washington Post ran a banner headline, this time above
three stories, saying -- "A Nation and the World Pay Tribute to Reagan."
The Washington Times had four stories, all under the headline -- "Reagan's
state funeral set for Friday." But the New York Times, under only a single
column, reports -- "Reagan Legacy Looming Large over [Presidential]
Campaign."
As for Reagan's role in ending the cold war, the New York Times says -- "It was Mr.
Reagan's good fortune that during his time in office the Soviet Union was undergoing
profound change, eventuallly to collapse."
And in an editorial today, the Times took a hit at both Reagan and President Bush,
saying -- "Looking back now, we can trace some of the flaws of the current Washington
mindset -- the tax-cut-driven deficits, the sloogan-driven foreign policy -- to Mr.
Reagan's example."

DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER
==========
CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list. Proselytizing propagandic
screeds are unwelcomed. Substance—not soap-boxing—please! These are
sordid matters and 'conspiracy theory'—with its many half-truths, mis-
directions and outright frauds—is used politically by different groups with
major and minor effects spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought.
That being said, CTRLgives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and
always suggests to readers; be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no
credence to Holocaust denial and nazi's need not apply.
Let us please be civil and as always, Caveat Lector.
