Short-bus journalism (Part V)
A headline over a story about the Federal Marriage Amendment in the July 9 New York Times read: "Conservatives Press Ahead on Anti-Gay Issue." Ask yourself whether this is an appropriate news headline for the Gray Lady, the "paper of record."
If you have no problem with it, would you have a problem with a federal tax-cut repeal debate reported as, "Liberals Press Ahead on Anti-Rich Issue"?
