I don't trust any powerful executive in the White House.

I found Howell Raines' memoirs on the local library shelf yesterday and am reading it. I've just gotten in to the beginning of his period as executive editor of the Times editorial page as Clinton becomes president. He notes they gave Clinton a very hard time. So Clinton called Sulzberger down for lunch and gave him more than a little grief over it.

Raines notes that Sulzberger told him about the visit, some of the stories exchanged but never asked him to cut the Clinton folk any slack. And they didn't.

The Times definitely has its flaws. We are not looking at one of them right now.
