Don't know how many of you get the NY Times headlines e-mailed to you every day, probably quite a few. But you may have noticed something strange today : if you read that description of the news article that seems to appear in Politics today, it sounds like it has a harsher edge than you might expect. But then as you go further down the mailing you come to the exact same headline and description, only this time it includes a by-line and you realize it's not a news story at all, but another opinion column by liberal Democrat Paul Krugman. Not only do they link to it twice they also have it masquerading as journalism rather than mere punditry in one of the listings. And people wonder why conservatives say the Times is biased...
