Pirate's Cove

Hey, how about this? The New York Times has crawled out of Liberal World, and posted a story on the Air America Saga. As Michelle Malkin puts it:

After 15 days of silence, the New York Times has filed a thin little report on the Air Scamerica/Air Enron fiasco. But you need a magnifying glass to find it. Go the the NYTimes.com homepage. Nothing there. Click over the National section. Nothing there. Find your way to the NY/Region section. Scroll way down past the featured stories.

Aha! There it is:

Bronx Boys Club’s Finances Investigated

But, yes, it is a total rehash of what has happened, covered in more depth by folks whose only editorial staffs are their conciences, including edited quotes:

"I don’t know why he did it," Mr. Franken said, according to a transcript of the broadcast made by the Department of Investigation. "I don’t know where the money went. I don’t know if it was used for operations. I think he was borrowing from Peter to pay Paul."

The real one:

I don’t know why they did it, and I don’t know where the money went, I don’t know if it was used for operations [softer, especially fast], which I imagine it was. I think he was robbing Peter to pay Paul.

Michelle recomends Ombudsman Byron Calame (public@nytimes.com). Do it. And, I wonder how Melanie Sills at The Raleigh News and Observer will take this?
