Turmoil: The New York Times Facing Internal Take Over Bid
Looks like Pinch Sulzberger is facing some stiff carping from the NYT's shareholders and there are rumors of the dynastic family being pushed to move the paper's Internet migration at a faster pace. The Telegraph reports "outside investors" are also trying to loosen the iron grip the long time owners have had on the Gray Lady. The feelings of these outsiders is that the Times will fail if it…
CBS ‘Early Show’: McCain Born in Panama, ‘Can He Still Be Presid
At the top of Thursday’s CBS "Early Show," co-host Harry Smith teased a story on John McCain being born in the Panama Canal zone rather than inside the United States and if it would disqualify him from the presidency: "Born in the USA. John McCain wasn't. Can he still be president?" The story, which was regurgitated from The New York Times, was presented as a news brief by co-host Russ Mitchell a…

In a poll released today by Rasmussen Reports, the American public holds a strongly negative view of the story and of the paper that released it: Just 24% of American voters have a favorable opinion of the New York Times.
