A lengthy, detailed, and devastating indictment: "How the New York Times Bungled the Hillary Clinton EMails Story," Newsweek, by Kurt Eichenwald: http://www.newsweek.com/hillary-clinton-new-york-times-emails-357246

(92,482 posts)As Rachel Maddow said about 6 weeks ago, if Hillary found the cure for cancer, the Hillary bashers would still complain
The Clinton Rules are back in effect and HRC's detractors will take full advantage.
For the NY Times: good doggie, here's a treat.

In terms of journalism, this is terrible. That the Times article never discloses this is about an after-the-fact review of Clintons emails conducted long after she left the State Department is simply inexcusable. That this all comes from a concern about the accidental release of classified informationa fact that goes unmentionedis even worse. In other words, the Times has twisted and turned in a way that makes this story seem like something it most decidedly is not. This is no Clinton scandal. It is no scandal at all. It is about current bureaucratic processes, probably the biggest snooze-fest in all of journalism.
The heavy breathing of deception or incompetence by the Times doesnt stop there. In fact, almost every paragraph at the top of the story is wrong, misleading or fundamentally deceptive.

"In our hyper-partisan world, many people will not care about the truth here. That the Times story is false in almost every particulardown to the level of who wrote what memowill only lead to accusations that people trying to set the record straight are pro-Hillary. I am not pro-Hillary. I am, however, pro-journalism. And this display of incompetence or malice cannot stand without correction."
