Dan, I'm not sure what proof you expect me to show you that the New York Times has a vast liberal slant. Perhaps if you read the paper one time -- shudder -- you'd understand better. That they hired Kristol was greeted as sort of a joke in these (and most other) parts. It was done basically to say to the Republicans, "see? we're fair and balanced, too." Of course he is just the only conservative columnist pretty much in a newspaper that has dozens of wildly liberal columnists. With all respect, and I know you mean well, but it is widely accepted that the Times is a liberal newspaper. Remember, they were the ones that published the McCain girlfiend story? Without any attribution to named sources? That's like one of 1000 different examples of their bias.
