48 to 2. That’s the ratio of stories in the L.A. Times touting Joe Wilson’s allegations (48) to stories covering the Senate report that destroyed his credibility (2). Details here.

“To be fair to the Times, some other mainstream newspapers are even worse.”
Actually, taken as a piece of mordantly dry, dead pan humor, that’s quite hilarious, in a tragi-comic sense.
The fact that it is hilarious, and is so only on second blush, is a reflection of the crumbling media facades presenting themselves for our viewing and reading amusement (bemusement?) on a daily basis. Send in the clowns - don’t bother - they’re here.
