The Times they are achanging

The New York Times exposé on Senator McCain details his questionable relationship with a female Washington lobbyist.Now the Republican Party might have to drop McCain as their potential Presidential candidate.
But there’s no way the Republicans can win the presidency no matter who they nominate because they’re identified too closely with a failing war and a failing economy.
The Democratic Party could nominate Daffy Duck for president and still win.
But why did the NY Times decide to do a critique on Senator McCain?
No doubt a lot of people out there will credit the NY Times reputed liberal stance for publishing the exposé on McCain’s unethical behavior.
But I doubt whether the NY Times would have published this exposé on their front page without the pressure put on them by the ground swell of popular dissent in the US.
After all the NY Times along with every other major newspaper in North America supported the neo-liberal economic and political policies that have turned the majority of ordinary Americans people against the establishment.
That’s what firing up the long defunct and bankrupt pretence of a free press in the US.
The shift to the left of the American people
