• October 11
-- Trashing
"Unfit for Command," Loving Kitty Kelley
After spending seven weeks near the top of the Times best seller
list, the NYT finally issues a 100% negative review of "'Unfit for
Command," while giving a favorable notice to Kitty Kelley's trashy
anti-Bush "biography."
• September 16 -- Kitty
Kelley Finds a Cozy Home at the Times
The Times finds a cute way to put Kitty Kelley's unsubstantiated
anti-Bush allegations (or as Frank Bruni would say, "thoroughly researched
piece of work") into the paper.
• September 14 -- Room
for Kitty Kelley, None for Swift Boat Vets
After ignoring the book "Unfit for Command" by members of the
Swift Boat Veterans (now #1 on the New York Times best seller list), the Times
greets Bush-hater Kitty Kelley's trashy anti-Bush "biography" with a
front-page Arts section review.

• September 25 -- The Times vs.
“Scurrilous Biographies”…Sometimes
Michiko Kakutani reviews an anti-Clinton biography and doesn’t like it one
bit: “Nigel Hamilton's new biography of Bill Clinton represents a sleazy new low
in the chronicling of presidential lives. It regurgitates the most scurrilous
and unsubstantiated rumors about Mr. Clinton and his wife…” So the Times would
never herald a book full of “scurrilous and unsubstantiated rumors” about a
president and his wife? Ask Nancy Reagan.
