"Their "fuckups" are inexcusable at best and deliberate at worst. Their "fuckups" are journalistic malpractice."
Is that your idea of critical thinking? Where else does he say anything about the NYT providing examples to back up his assertions? Instead he attacks posters. At least you provided an example of a NYT mistake. Where are Krav's examples? Where is his "reasoned argument"? Is this post of Krav's your idea of critical thinking?
"Re: "the Pentagon Papers" That was then, this is NOW."
What media does Krav consider to reliable mistake-free sources that don't commit "journalistic malpractice"? He never says.
Several times you've posted to criticize the NYT. I'm wondering why it is that you single out them but never mention media that not only create and promote falsehoods but do so as a deliberate policy - Fox News and Murdoch newspapers. In your criticism of media you never mention any "conservative" leaning media. Why is that? As I've mentioned before, the readership and viewership and number of conservative media outlets certainly qualifies them to be considered "mainstream" media, yet you focus on the NYT's mistakes and ignore blatant bs published/broadcast on "conservative" media.
