Lucianne.com News Forum posters are not entirely pleased with the explanations of DEAN BAQUET, editor, The Los Angeles Times, and BILL KELLER, executive editor, The New York Times regarding the publication of Terror War secrets stolen by turned-in-place traitors from the people of the United States.
(It is highly improper to publish secrets in any case. Even a child knows that a secret is something that is told to one person at a time.)
Note that new heights of invective are being attained. Particularly by the neologistic phrase, "despicable islamopignazi lover".
An unimpeachable, usually reliable, source whose identity and credentials must remain secret, has disclosed that both the New York Times owner and the executive editor, have been awarded, in secret ceremonies, top medals for valor, loyalty, and contributions to the cause from both the Taliban and Al Queda.

When Do We Publish a Secret? [/] New York Times, by Dean Baquet and Bill Keller
Original Article [/] Posted By:HogPilot, 7/1/2006 7:45:13 AM
SINCE Sept. 11, 2001, newspaper editors have faced excruciating choices in covering the government's efforts to protect the country from terrorist agents. Each of us has, on a number of occasions, withheld information because we were convinced that publishing it could put lives at risk.--snip--Make no mistake, journalists have a large and personal stake in the country's security.

When? Whenever they think it will hurt GWB politically of course...

Right...the drive by media unloads its IEDs then stands around fascinated, watching how much attention it has generated not concerned about the irreparable damage that results. May the NYTimes and others like them fall into an economic abyss from which they will never recover for the ill they have done to U.S.

For NYT's claim of being so right in their decision to publish state secrets they sho' do be a-hummin' a lot of forgive me tunes. Yup, and if I made a decision based on what I thought was just and right I'd certainly not waste a lot of time and ink trying to put polish and lipstick on it. Nope, the boycott goes on and so does the NYT's sojourn to the dead fish dumpster, where the odor from these kind of screeds won't be noticed. The only thing good that the NYT's can print now is the last edition! […] [My ellipses and emphasis]
