NY Times

You're on notice!

For the second day in a row The Caucus, the Times' political blog, has published a grievous error. For the second day in a row, I have called them on it.

Yesterday they called Howard Dean "John Dean" and today they mistakenly regurgitated the "news" that Marc Ambinder reported Jeb Bush endorsing Giuliani. In fact, it was Jeb Bush, JUNIOR.

I know it can be tough dealing with political dynasty families since they lack the creativity in their pride-stuffed brains to do anything but name their children after themselves, but you're the New York f'in Times. Don't be an idiot. Seriously. Its not even like they simply misconstrued the name. They went out of their way to call him the former FL governor. As if Jeb would do that right now. It boggles my mind.

I'm on a Bush league computer so I don't know if the links are working, but here it is. They may have changed it by now.

Good catch.

BTB, you are a model of what a blogger should be. Continue to regulate the shoddy and perhaps dodgey journalism of the corporate media.
