Mainstream journalists scoff when conservatives claim they’re too tied to powerful Democrats who run the government. “We’re objective,” they protest, and everybody (even them) knows it’s not true.
Occasionally, something happens that proves what conservatives have been saying for years. This is one of them:
But The Post found itself in another potentially embarrassing and ethically compromised position on Wednesday after one of its most senior reporters abruptly canceled an appearance at her own book party, which was being sponsored by a public relations firm with strong ties to the Democratic Party.
The reporter, Ceci Connolly, also happened to be at the center of last year’s dinner party controversy. E-mail invitations sent out to members of Congress and others under Ms. Weymouth’s name promoted Ms. Connolly, a health care reporter, as a co-host of one of the dinners.
Do you think The New York Times relished publishing this tidbit?
