Criticizing Sunday article in NY Times biz section
February 21, 2006
NewsBusters, w blog that works to find liberal bias on the media, critiques the article on the front page of the Sunday New York Times business section in a recent post. The article, written by reporter Landon Thomas Jr., is a profile of conspiracy-mongering author John Perkins called “Confessing to the converted.”
NewsBusters writes: “A paranoid left-wing audience may indeed find a ‘ring of truth’ to the suggestion that the corporate-government complex murdered Sen. Paul Wellstone and JFK Jr., but does that mean the Times has to relay it without critical comment? Thomas takes a liberal line to defend Perkins’ sub-Michael Moore appeal.”
