[lbo-talk] Time-Delayed Journalism

[Doug Henwood]

Steven L. Robinson quoted Cockburn & St Clair:


>And when it comes to zeal in protecting the Bill of Rights, between December
>22, 1974 and December 16, 2005 it's been a steady run down hill for the New
>York Times.

True enough, but look on the bright side: 1974 was a year of serious 
legitimation crisis in the US. That the Times published this now 
suggests that maybe we're in the early phases of another one.
