I don't understand your problem with the NYT; they were very gracious in not
asking McCain also give them his left leg and right arm before they would
print his op-ed.
You make it sound like you just discovered the NYT was, shall we say, a
little biased. At this point, they so believe in the inevitability of Lord
Obama, they don't even care about putting up some type of façade of
impartiality.

McCain and the N Y Times
McCain sent an op-ed piece to the New York Times. Obama had one last
week, so it was hardly surprising. The Times rejected McCain's editorial
demanding that
"the article would have to articulate, in concrete terms, how Senator McCain
defines victory in Iraq. It would also have to lay out a clear plan for
achieving
victory -- with troops levels, timetables and measures for compelling the
Iraqis
to cooperate.
"And it would need to describe the senator’s Afghanistan strategy, spelling
out
how it meshes with his Iraq plan."
Astonishing. All this before the mighty New York Time will accept an op-ed
piece by the nominee of the Republican Party. Which tells us pretty well all
we
need to know about where the Times stands on the election. Read again what
the editors demanded. Think on it.
