Who exactly forced the NYT to support the Bush administrations preposterous claims about WMD? If journalists want to be lionized instead of demonized they should perhaps stand up to power, and not only when their friends don't like the people in power. News is dying because they whored themselves out decades ago. Facebook and google are excuses for the final stages of the decline, but they weren't there in the 90s when quality started to slide and papers were being bought out.
