Correcting Where It Counts: an excellent piece in by John Hinderaker demonstrating the exquisite sensitivity of the NYT to any hint of bias in trivial stories, but blindness when it counts.
…Andrew C. McCarthy, a former federal prosecutor who took part in terrorism investigations in New York after the Sept. 11 attacks, said that both The Times, for its disclosures about the eavesdropping program, and The Post, for an article about secret C.I.A. prisons, had violated the 1917 law. The Times, he added, has also violated the 1950 law.
“It was irresponsible to publish these things,” Mr. McCarthy said. “I wouldn’t hesitate to prosecute.”
The reporters who wrote the two articles recently won Pulitzer Prizes.
