I stopped consulting THE GLIBERAL a while ago -- I can make up his lines in my sleep -- but even a man NRO acclaims as
America's worst columnist can come up with a truth, though it be for him like searching the proverbial haystack for the needle.
To wit:At Time, Norman Pearlstine⦠described his decision to turn over Matt Cooper's files to the feds as his own, made on the merits and without consulting any higher-ups at Time Warner. That's no doubt the truth, but a corporate mentality needn't be imposed by direct fiat; it's a virus that metastasizes in the bureaucratic bloodstream. I doubt anyone at Time Warner ever orders an editor to promote a schlocky Warner Brothers movie either. (Entertainment Weekly did two covers in one month on "The Matrix Reloaded.")Of COURSE the NRO man must consider GLIB's "Bush hatred" worse; but organization-man thinking has gotten the NEWS BIZ in nothing but trouble, and it allows MANY things to metastasize.
