Not Checking the Right Sources

Byron Calame, the New York Times ombudsman, critiques the Times' May 23 article about the Clinton's marriage.

Accurately, he notes:

If anything, I think the cautious editing occasionally left the story appearing too considerate to the Clintons; I'm actually surprised so little has been heard from their critics about that.

Well, Mr. Calame needs to get out a bit. Here on this blog, I noted that if lefties were unhappy with this piece, they should have been around back in the '80's when the Times printed cheap gossip alleging that Nancy Reagan was conducting an affair with Frank Sinatra.

You are right, when will the New York Times start reporting on Bush's drinking, his affairs and his homosexual relations? How soon will the Times become another tabloid?
