Why is the WSJ tossing stones at its own glass house...?

one, it wasn't a secret... two, the wsj printed the story too, and the fact that they weren't asked not to is a response so laughable that it verges on the surreal...
Perhaps Mr. Keller has been listening to his boss, Times Publisher Arthur Sulzberger Jr., who in a recent commencement address apologized to the graduates because his generation "had seen the horrors and futility of war and smelled the stench of corruption in government.

"Our children, we vowed, would never know that. So, well, sorry. It wasn't supposed to be this way," the publisher continued. "You weren't supposed to be graduating into an America fighting a misbegotten war in a foreign land. You weren't supposed to be graduating into a world where we are still fighting for fundamental human rights," and so on.

Forgive us if we conclude that a newspaper led by someone who speaks this way to college seniors has as a major goal not winning the war on terror but obstructing it.

forgive me if i conclude that the wsj operates as a bought and paid for propaganda organ of the bush administration while turning a blind eye to the illegal war in iraq and the systematic destruction of the constitutional guarantees that have long served as the foundation of this country, guarantees, may i remind you, that include freedom of the press...
