D’Ya Think There’s A Blatant Anti-Clinton Prejudice At The NY Times? D’Ya Think Wa

Atrios has this absolutely right. So I'll just cut and paste his post: --- Say hello to Pat Healy, the Times' resident tabloid journalist. Politely ask him when he plans to do a 50 source story on the personal life of Rudy Giuliani - past, present, and "concerns for the future" - and other prominent politicians. Ask him if he's married, and if so ask if he'd be so kind as to tell us just how many nights he spends with his wife during an average month. Or, if not, we'd appreciate an update on his dating situation. Most of all try to get him to explain whether the intimate details of all politicians' marriages are fair game, or just those of the Clintons. --- Read the Healy story on the Clintons here. In his followup post, Atrios notes that "long 50-source front page stories about the personal lives of politicians don't bubble up from "slow days." Such stories are assigned by top editors." --- Now, a lengthy 50-source front page story on the "personal life" of Judy Miller might actually be a genuinely newsworthy story.
