The New York Times: Obsessed, deranged and totally unapologetic

A recent New York Times editorial went to great pains to associate the IRS plane bomber with the Tea Party Movement, even though the evidence offered by the editorial actually contradicts that very point. The Times deftly dodges bald-faced lies by replacing facts with fantastic conjecture and peppering the entire diatribe with caveats – “. . . it would be inaccurate to call him a card-carrying Tea Partier or a Tea Party Terrorist. But . . . “. This style of writing shall henceforth be deemed ‘Hiding in Plain Sight”, as in the lies are printed right there in black & white, yet the writer pretends to have credibility by hiding behind all sorts of equivocations, rationalizations and amateurishly crafted inferences.
