How to Hit Three Targets with One Shot

A lesson in triple-dealing from the Fourth Estate.

This lesson you won't get from your archery or rifle-shooting tutor.

This service you get only from New York Times.

See what they have achieved:

  1. First publish an endorsement for Hillary Clinton
  2. Then accuse John McCain of improper liaisons

Whatever ambiguous words they may have used, that is essentially the final impression that is being registered in the readers' mind.

Now let us see how this irresponsible or cunning behavior by the fourth estate affects both candidates.

As Hillary is the only candidate prominently endorsed by NYT, the public will consider them as pro-Clinton.

So the public can be thus manipulated to think that Hillary was behind the accusations against McCain, undermining her chances further.

Also, confirmed Republican antagonists of McCain are also provided a stick to beat him.

How long will American media carry on this romance with yellow journalism and manipulative behavior?

Since NYT has NOW proved that they are neither pro-Hillary nor pro-McCain, will they have the guts - that is, if they really have the guts- to tell their readers which third candidate they are actually working for?
