The New York Times is laughable in a world where the sound of laughter only makes the Times dig deeper into its well of smug indifference to reality.
A Note to Readers: The Decision to Publish Diplomatic Documents
For The Times to ignore this material would be to deny its own readers the careful reporting and thoughtful analysis they expect when this kind of information becomes public.
As usual, once the NYT thinks they have reached the bottom they call for diagrams from within their pool of diggers as to dig deeper.
The "deny its own readers the careful reporting and thoughtful analysis they expect" line is delicious, but de rigueur in a world of self delusion.
