There's an unintentionally hilarious piece of editing in a news story headlined "Netanyahu Urges Pope to Speak Out Against Iran" in today's New York Times. I say "editing" because it can only have been done by the hand of an editor - I can't believe any reporter would have written the sentence in bold below.
After a quotation from the Israeli premier Benjamin Netanyahu asking the Pope "as a moral figure to make his voice heard loudly and continuously against the declarations coming from Iran about their intentions to destroy the state of Israel", this was inserted into the story:
(In the past, Iran's president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, has called for Israel's destruction, although on at least one occasion last year, he used somewhat less severe language, saying Israel would collapse.)
But of course, the mainstream media isn't biased, is it???
Of course the New York Times is liberal as is MSNBC. I can admit that, but I also admit that Fox News is in the tank for the Republicans as MSNBC is for the Democrats. My question to you is can you admit Fox News is bias and in favor of the Republicans?
