THAT TIMES POLL AND ‘STORY’

Great minds think alike. Mickey Kaus superbly skewers the propaganda masquerading as journalism under Rick Berke’s by-line. Must-read. Memo to Raines: you can’t get away with it any more. The bloggers are on your case. (One of the joys of blogging is that I can see that I beat Mickey to the punch on this by 4 hours and 15 minutes precisely. But there’s so much flim-flam in the Times story that the two pieces barely overlap.)
