Oh my! Speaking Truth to Power!
The New York Times is trying to fill an ideological niche. It is a business decision, and one made under economic duress, as the New York Times is a failing business. But the paper's reporting on Senator McCain, his campaign, and his staff should be clearly understood by the American people for what it is: a partisan assault aimed at promoting that paper's preferred candidate, Barack Obama.
That's from the McCain campaign - pushing back against the New York Times. I like "failing business."
The press release addresses very specific failings (mistakes? lies?) in the Times reporting about links between a McCain staffer and Freddie Mac and questions the failure to investigate the Obama campaign's links to Fannie Mae. Putting it all in terms of a business decision is elegant.
