What disappoints me is the way the media in the UK, like the Guardian/BBC axis, simply follow the 'quality' US press like the NYT... slavishly, as if they are the authority on all things. If I was in charge at the Guardian, my stance, my default position, would be to try to distance myself from whatever the NYT published and look for a counter story all the time, 'cause their record is pretty awful. I'd give Gabbard a chance to answer the smears against her and present her as the opposite of what they say she is. I think this makes ideological and commercial sense too. I mean, why does the Guardian so slavishly follow the US press? We're not all secret Amercians are we?
