Bashing Newsweek - New York Times

BoBo says liberals hate America

Bashing Newsweek - New York Times: "Meanwhile, the left side of the blogosphere has erupted with fury over the possibility that American interrogators might not have flushed a Koran down the toilet. The Nation and leftish Web sites are in a frenzy to prove that the story is probably true even if Newsweek is retracting it.

This, too, is unhinged. Would it be illegal for more people on the left to actually be happy that a story slurring Americans may turn out to be unproven? Could there be a few more liberals willing to admit that prisoners routinely lie about their treatment? (Do we expect them to say their time in captivity wasn't so bad?)"

"prisioners routinely lie about their treatment"
"may turn out to be unproven?"

"unproven"?

Wouldn't a reporter try to find out if this story is correct? Instead BoBo says journalism is leftism and a story "slurring Americans may turn out to be unproven". See, if it's correct then the reporting it is still slurring Americans, not the other way around where the perpetrator is slurring American values. No, the vandal is being slurred by the truth.
