Default The New York Sun

Maybe it is coincidence but 3 times today posters have referenced "The New York Sun." I did a little sleuthing on this rag.I found out it is far right journalism. That is okay as long as we all know! The editor referred to all democrats as far leftists. I scanned a few top stories that would lead me to believe all is well in Iraq and the majority of americans are happy with Bush. Okay...

It had some interesting articles on "The Arts".

The paper I can see would be an enjoyable read for the far right on this forum. Google for yourself and read.Enjoy

I sit on the left but every once in a while we do get stuff posted from the left too so fair is fair (that sits firmly left)...but yes, the Sun does tend to lean right on many things, I read some of it too when those were posted. I think Kix and Gix are readers of that paper.

And the far left papers say that everything is going wrong in Iraq and everyone hates Bush. Your point is.

I was asking Forza, I have debated with you enough to know what your point is.

As much as the new york sun is right based the new york times is left based. They are polar opasites. So why is it ok to link and post from the new york time but it's not ok to post from the new york sun.

More liberal double standards

Know the story well, plagerism is illegal in any court/profession right or left. What is your point?

I see a lot of things on here about opposing Keller's opinion's but what is the point you are trying to make?

The NYT does and continues to print OP ED pieces from both sides and has on thier staff people that do this.

David Broder writers and reports for the WP and is well known to be on the right.

I don't agree with everything either prints and no, Mareen Dowd's timing was probably less than spectacular when the 'secrets' things came up but the NYT is not a left wing rag. During the Reagan administration I remember them accused of being very sympathetic to President Reagan when he was at the very height of his popularity.

I had also posted a while back about PBS and how it is gone right on the Newshour show...no one seemed to counter that.
