( I hope his thread will be read through because it speaks to grief that is unlike others. Ornstein, to those unfamiliar, is a conservative who outed the Republican Party years ago, describing them as a radical insurgency. )

1. Ornstein is a voice of empathy and reason. Well said on his part. nt

3. The F@@King NYT is also part of this effort

I unsubscribed to the NYT a long time ago (before the crap on Hillary Emails) The NYT is a very pro TFG publication that worked hard to elect TFG by pushing the stupid Hilary email story long after it was clear that this story was bogus. The assholes at the NYT are assholes and here is a good example of the NYT going out of its way to attack Joe Biden

The New York Times on Saturday changed a headline on an article about President Joe Biden as Twitter users reacted to the phrasing in a variety of mostly negative ways.

The original headline “Biden, Still Grieving His Son, Finds That Not Everyone Wants to Hear About It” was on a Katie Rogers article about the president expressing his grief and facing some criticism over discussing his lost son while visiting with the families grieving the deaths of United States servicemembers in the terror attack in Kabul.

The new version of the headline on the article reads: “In Invoking Beau, Biden Broaches a Loss That’s Guided His Presidency.”

The original faced some negative reactions for its phrasing. After it was changed, some pointed out the change, including Mediaite’s Tommy Christopher.

How come the NYT couldn't figure out truth from fiction? Honor lost many years ago.



The Reporting Team That Got Iraq Right
By Max Follmer

As the war in Iraq completes its fifth year this week, The Huffington Post is featuring interviews with and essays by those journalists, elected officials, policymakers and former military officials who spoke out early and boldly against what they saw as an inevitable disaster. They join our Iraq Honor Roll.

In the months before the U.S. invasion of Iraq, the reporters in the Knight Ridder Newspapers Washington D.C. bureau were virtually alone in their questioning of the Bush Administration’s allegations of links between Saddam Hussein, weapons of mass destruction and international terrorism. The team of Knight Ridder reporters, led by Jonathan Landay, Warren Strobel, John Walcott and Joe Galloway, produced stories that now read like a prescient accounting of how the Bush Administration sought to sell the war to the American people. Walcott and Landay spoke with The Huffington Post about the fifth anniversary of the war. Knight Ridder Newspapers has since merged with McClatchy Newspapers. You can read the entire Knight Ridder and McClatchy archives of their Iraq intelligence reporting by clicking here.
