I do read the Public Editor&#x27;s column occasionally; I think she should be far more aggressive. She just kind of takes what she&#x27;s told at face value and doesn&#x27;t pursue anything.<p>&gt; Would you really be convinced by any critique of the New York Times coming from a conservative source? There are many of them and they&#x27;re not hard to find.<p>My point (maybe made to someone else) is lots of bullshit is a just a big pile of bullshit. Lots of lies don&#x27;t make for truth. Of course the Times is a target of conservative sources, the same that say climate change is in doubt, but does lots of repetition by them make it true? Did it make the Iraq War turn out any better?<p>I would like to read some more scholarly sources. Unforunately, while I don&#x27;t object to conservativism at all, so much of it is wrapped up in ideology (which I do object to) that it&#x27;s hard to find a good source. Do you know one that isn&#x27;t ideological?
