Default Dont you love the media....

Gail Collins of the New York Times is just about the most liberal reporter over there and spends almost all of her time attacking Republicans and with great glee.

During the 2012 campaign, she took great delight in mentioning Mitt Romneys dog in almost every column......issues to be discussed, etc but she kept after that.

Well, she made an error and it would be very difficult to find out about this because as we all know, the NYTimes makes no errors and the media has no bias.

"In hindsight, perhaps the headline “Scott Walker Needs An Eraser” wasn’t the best idea.
In a recent column about the Wisconsin governor, a conservative Republican, New York Times columnist Gail Collins wrote that Walker had cut state aid to education, causing teacher layoffs in 2010. But Walker didn’t take office until 2011.

Whoops.

Conservative news sites had a field day with the error over the weekend, with The Weekly Standard’s John McCormack calling out the (since deleted and corrected, but archived) mistaken section in question.
Collins wrote that Walker’s recent speech in Iowa was all about “waging war on public employee unions, particularly the ones for teachers.” She cited the case of a Claudia Felske, who took issue with Walker’s characterization of the layoffs.

Of course we have this.....

"Collins did not reply to an email seeking comment.""

Recall when political races started shortly before the election took place and the candidates gave their positions on issues, and the voters decided on a candidate ??

Now...well, know that I understand the NYTimes actually tracked down Walker's junior high school science teacher looking and looking.

It just amazes me. Well, other words rather than "amazes" but cannot say them all here.
