luskinreport.com >> Update... My friend Paul Philp writes with a good question. Krugman stated today, "There is a case for getting tough with Iraq; bear in mind that an exasperated Clinton administration considered a bombing campaign in 1998." Philp responds, "The Clinton administration did more than consider it. They dropped 400 cruise missiles, more than the entire Gulf War I, in 4 days. Do you think Krugman is under-reporting this because Clinton didn't go to the United Nations Security Council for clearance?"

Doesn't the New York Times employ editors anymore? Despite tb's recent move to NYC, there seems to be a shortage of aggressive editors there. The New Yorker, an otherwise fine magazine, lets Hersh do whatever he wants. Perhaps some writers get a lot more latitude than others. Perhaps the editorial culture is changing. Perhaps the near-immunity from defamation claims has loosened fact-checking and corroboration standards.
