		"The Grim View from the Times" Thanks to Rachel DiCarlo for so kindly providing evidence of what I was talking about in War and Life: It shouldn't surprise anyone that the editorial writers and opinion columnists at the New York Times oppose the war in Iraq. But what is surprising is that two weeks into the war, much of that opposition has leaked off of the editorial pages and into the news coverage. It's almost as if the paper of record has consciously decided to play up the negative events and setbacks and while minimizing victories.... A Times headline today let readers know that a "Heat Wave Approaching Iraq Could Force Limits on American Military Operations." Only hours later -- and despite the heat wave -- allied forces captured Saddam International Airport. Lane Core Jr. CIW P — Fri. 04/04/03 07:50:08 AM Categorized as Media.
