At least until they stop posting conservative talking points on the front page of their website!
Read below:

There are two articles linked on the front page of NyTimes.com. One is the Transcript of Dr. Rice's Testimony, the other is linked above.
The title of the link to that article? Partisanship Seeps Through
And it's been that way since they took down the 24 point headline: Rice Testifies before 9/11 Commission. Even moreso, the only picture on the front page since that point has been of either Bob Kerrey, or Richard Ben-Veniste who apparently garnered more attention from the Time for "going after" Dr. Rice than Dr. Rice herself! The Bush Administration must feel that there is nothing at all like needing attention diverted, only to turn around and see someone else doing it for you.
In conclusion, yes, the media do seem to finally be investigating the egregious behavior of the Bush Administration, and picking up on some of our memes, but please understand that we are still about as far from a liberal media as we've ever been.
