Liberia

• August 19 -- The Naked News
After working so hard to get U.S. troops into Liberia, the Times oddly buries Tim Weiner’s entertaining story on the Liberia peace deal, devoting much of the front page to a week-old story about a nude hiker.

• August 6 -- Times Promises Warm Liberian Welcome for U.S. Troops
Wednesday’s Times continues trying to coax the U.S. into Liberia, with visions of welcoming natives.

• July 30 -- Yankee Come Here!
After lamenting the “rush to war” in Iraq, the Times wants U.S. troops in Liberia yesterday. The headline to Somini Sengupta’s story from Monrovia is headlined: “Oh, if Only the G.I.’s Would Come Marching In.” She also suggests the U.S. wasn’t wanted in Iraq.
