Even
The New York Times felt that George Galloway's Senate testimony deserved no more than wire-service coverage. Its story today on Galloway today is from Reuters. I haven't seen the paper itself, so I don't know where it is placed--but it's certainly not on the front page (not, at least, on the website). There's a Ken Guggenheim story in
The Washington Post but, again, it's not front-page news. Maggie Farley and Johanna Neuman have a piece in
The Los Angeles Times, where (given the mayoral election) it can be forgiven for not being on the front page. But that's about it.
This, for the most impassioned damning of American policy and arrogance that has been seen in a long time. Here, at least, it has gotten considerable notice, thanks to Stockphrase's diary yesterday, which contains Galloway's statement. In the rest of American media? A yawn.
Do a Google News search on "George Galloway": you come up with stories from all over the world, but little from the US--except for things like the
story from RedState.org that attempts to manipulate Galloway's statement in the crassest, most propagandistic form (the headline is "Galloway Plays Stupid").
This should be front-page news. This would be, were there really those liberal media. This would be, were there any unbiased media.
