Bush's old world disorder
Gone are the days when stern words by a U.S. president could prevent rash action by an errant foreign leader like Musharraf.
By Sidney Blumenthal [2007-11-08]

  • reporting the news

    "...where did Musharraf get his warped idea of Lincoln as dictator and America as an example of tyranny? Not quite from diligent study of American history."

    and where did salon get the idea that a "composite photo" is a substitute for reporting and illustrating the news?

    this is cheesy journalism, using a form of mockery to illustrate a very serious story.

    salon's editors have good journalistic backgrounds -- this kind of display is a real lapse in judgment, i think.
