The Times Slimes

With the publication of Clarence Thomas's memoir, "My Grandfather's Son" (buy it from the OpinionJournal bookstore), executives at the New York Times have got to be regretting their decision to end TimesSelect and put its jejune columnists on display for the world to see. Maureen Dowd's column yesterday was written in Thomas's imagined voice and titled "I Did Do It," an obvious reference to "If I Did It," O.J. Simpson's ostensibly hypothetical confessional.

Dowd's joke can be summed up in a few words. Q: What do Clarence Thomas and O.J. Simpson have in common? A: They're both black!

As a newspaperman, we are embarrassed for our industry.
