ARTHUR SILBER: The NEW YORK TIMES Worships State Power

http://powerofnarrative.blogspot.com/2013/05/the-nyt-worships-state-power-part.html

This morning, I glanced at the Times and came across this article: "Groups Targeted by I.R.S. Tested Rules on Politics." The title conveys with full accuracy the theme of the story (which is presented as a "straight" news story): "You know all those conservative groups that were targeted by the I.R.S.? They were actually doing bad stuff!"

Subtlety is not the Times' strong suit.
