  - the New York Times (NYT), the Washington Post (WPO) and the technology-focused Cnet (CNET) - reported slowing Internet ad growth recently. Analysts and ad execs say established Internet sites - namely, the big portals and large content providers - are starting to feel the pinch after years of charging top dollar for space on their

  The New York Times, in its infinite wisdom, headlines "In Surprise Move, Fed Cuts Key Rate". The Washington Post concurs with "Fed Makes Surprise Move to Calm Markets", though that headline will probably be gone soon.Who was surprised? Certainly not the financial markets. This rate cut clearly leaked yesterday in the middle of the afternoon.I

  Tony Snow is going to take a pass on selling this stale, shopworn bullshit. They said this in 2003 and every few months since then. When is the press going to report the context?"For the twelfth time since the invasion in March 2003, the White House hinted of troop withdrawal plans in the indefinite future.""Lt. Gen. Odierno stated that the

  The New York Times favors us with this captious nonsense:Why did so many homebuyers ignore recent lessons to be skeptical about can't-lose, instant-wealth machines like tech stocks and start viewing real estate as such a certain and profitable bet?Earth to the Gray Lady: Home buyers in the subprime market were not investing; they were

  But I haven’t seen anything resembling a “broadside” directed the other way. To the contrary, everything McIntyre has said and written on the subject seems very measured and focused on facts. 5) Why did it take the NYT two weeks to report this? 6) Why the obvious contempt for the “blogger” who did some authentic

  in protest but doesn't say anything in public that could actually raise the issues he supposedly cares about. After leaving the Office of Legal Counsel, Goldsmith was uncertain about what, if anything, he should say publicly about his resignation. His silence came to be widely misinterpreted.Whose fault was that? Instead, he waits four years

  Anyone in the White House press corps willing to be the skunk in the room and ask Duhbya about this? It's a perfect elite media story - no Democrats involved. On the other hand, though, calling out a Republican for bullshit queers the deal on all those lucrative business-related chicken dinners.

  When governments suppress facts or even opinion, they plead guilty. For Duhbya, though, what's not to like? It's not as though he's a big fan of transparency, the free flow of information, or the will of the people. If he can get the damn door to open, he'll feel right at home.

  Nothing like regular payments to ensure loyalty. You can always count on conservatives to take care of their own, and Judy Miller is certainly one of their own. This is one reason they're so likely to fall on their swords if necessary - they know it won't cost them their cushy lifestyle. They'll probably even quietly take care of Larry Craig.
