In perhaps the most biased, incorrect, misleading and blatantly disgusting piece of journalism this campaign season, the Global Edition of the New York Times - The International Herald Tribune has published an article entitled: McCain Joins Obama On Offshore Drilling.
In the piece the Times suggests that McCain's statement that he would support a compromised plan allowing offshore drilling is an attempt to follow in the footsteps of similar statements made by Obama on Friday. Apparently the New York Times reporters have failed to listen to any statements made by the McCain campaign over the past 6 weeks.
This article goes well beyond a lack of journalistic integrity, it is in effect an attempt at blatant Obama campaign Propaganda that somehow suggests that the candidate who three days ago told American's to inflate their tires, has shown leadership or an understanding of the energy issue. Everyone knows that the paper whose revenue has dropped 80% is in the tank for Obama, however, apparently they are now the official Propaganda Ministry for the Obama Campaign. Boy I wonder why they love Obama in Germany?

The New York Times as such appears to be more balanced than the Herald Tribune:

ReplyDeleteBrian,
ReplyDeleteThe International Herald Tribune IS THE GLOBAL EDITION OF THE NEW YORK TIMES, same staff and everything. Don't even try to defend them as balanced.
