A brief I told you so. So far as the New York Times is concerned, yesterday’s demonstrations didn’t happen. Not a mention, so far as I could find. Maybe we should bring guns to our rallies, but of course if we did, we wouldn’t be justifiably angry Americans like the tea partiers, we’d be arrested.
Meanwhile the networks are certainly discussing the Wisconsin situation-but only with Republicans.
UPDATE: Following a link from a MoveOn email, I find that the Times did cover the story. It was not in the early edition that I get delivered to my home. The web article, to which I’ve linked, is followed by the following: “A version of this article appeared in print on February 27, 2011, on page A4 of the New York edition.” It would be interesting to see if the entire web article made the print edition, or whether it was heavily edited. It was definitely not on page A4 of the paper we got.
