Even the "Note" picked up on the "Times" churlish reporting of Reagan's death. NEWS SUMMARY Our condolences to the Reagan family and thanks for their sacrifices to public service. As for the question we are increasingly asked (How will President Reagan's death influence this election year?), very few members of the media have weighed in publicly so far. The New York Times -- coming off of its inexplicable Sunday paper performance in which its Reagan coverage was shockingly skimpy -- fronts above the fold Adam Nagourney's first draft of history looking at the possible implications for November 2004. There are some nuggets there, but its wishy washy quality is probably owing to the fact that the only two rational positions to take on the question at this point are: A. It probably won't affect the decisions of real voters (impervious to Beltway bloviating and theorizing) when it comes time to cast ballots on election day. and/or B. There's really no way to know how it could/will/might influence things with any certainty.
