Wasn't it a NY Times journalist that was severly reprimanded, when it was found the stories he'd been writing, were manufactured? Why now, am I supposed to believe that this particular story is not slanted, tainted with politcs, or otherwise misleading, since it too, is from Times journalists? I certainly do not believe everything I read and even less of what I've heard. That goes for some people, who post here as well. I take the source into account before doing any of my own investigations into the facts.
