Truth is demographics suggest that the left is over represented to the overall body politic. As greater than 51% abstain in voting, the lefts, hence the nyt's audience never represents a greater share than 18% of the population.

Therefore it is True that the left sustains a disproportionate share of all dialog.

the fact that nyt is soliciting customers nation wide, is their attempt to sustain viability, among their potential of up to 18% of the gross population.

Basically, the lefts over representation in national dialog is faltering as the gross sums available for largess is used to sustain the fractional groups they have obligations with, while the greater body politic is posturing in alignment against in place inertia cast by their myths.

One would think that common sense would dictate that it would be foolish to toss 50% of your business in the trash.

One would think. But organizations have a identity like people do, and it's hard to make any change that impacts one's self-identification. Ever read Barbara Tuchman's The March of Folly?

Just like Hollywood. After the success of The Passion and now the Emily Rose movie, I cannot understand why I'm not seeing at least one or two openly Christian movies. How about one about early Christians in the late Roman Empire? You could combine Gladiator and The Passion, what a formula! But they can't bring themselves to touch it. When they tried, they brought us Kingdom of Heaven - a Crusades movie stripped of religion, except for the bad guys (Christian, naturally. Gotta show only noble Moslems, don't want trouble with CAIR.).
