Do As We Say
David Kurtz at Talking Points Memo notes that former New York Times scribe Judith Miller is now working for the right-wing Manhattan Institute.
The Insitute's web site lists her as an adjunct fellow and a contributing editor at its City Journal.
I wonder how the Manhattan Institute reconciles Miller's bamboozling readers of the Times in the run-up to the Iraq war with its mission statement, prominently displayed to top right on its web pages?
The Mission of the Manhattan Institute is to develop and disseminate new ideas that foster greater economic choice and individual responsibility.
Individual responsibility, I suppose, makes more sense for the poor and underprivileged, but it has a different meaning for Adjunct Fellows and their friends.
