Patterico runs a "LA Times" watch blog. He has the same reaction as you and I.

The "Moral Authority" of Hamas Founder
The sub-head of this L.A. Times news analysis on the death of Hamas founder Sheik Ahmed Yassin reads:

The Hamas cleric had a moral authority that motivated many to give their lives to kill others.
Just read that to yourself out loud a few times.
What is going on in the brain of a headline writer who praises the "moral authority" of the head of an organization which boasts about its acts of mass murder?
