Adam Liptak

2004

• November 8 -- "Poll Tax" for Poor Voters in Ohio?
Adam Liptak finds a racial angle and even "a sort of poll tax" in a story on voting problems in Ohio.

• November 2 -- Democrats "To Insure Voters Are Not Intimidated"
James Dao and Adam Liptak's front-page story passes along Democratic accusations of vote suppression: "In Florida, Republicans have said they will challenge 1,700 people with felons convictions if they show up to vote. Democrats have mustered thousands of poll watchers whose job will be to ensure that voters are not intimidated."

• October 8 -- Miller's Time in Court Over Plame-Gate
Judith Miller held in contempt over the Valerie Plame-Joe Wilson controversy.

• June 10 -- A Headline You'll Never See In the Times
The headline reads "Should Doctors Help With Executions? No Easy Ethical Answer." Times Watch wonders if the Times would ever extend that premise to abortion.

 

• October 23 -- Keeping Terri Schiavo Alive a "Constitutional Crisis"
Adam Liptak's story on Terri Schiavo sees a constitutional crisis in allowing the brain-damaged woman to live: "The Florida Legislature has created a constitutional crisis, legal scholars said yesterday. "

• August 14 -- Shielding for Saddam
Adam Liptak takes a chronologically challenged look at Americans who went to Iraq as “human shields” and now face fines, alleging: “Several people involved in the effort said that none of the sites were attacked while human shields were present.” Of course they weren’t: These “shields” left Iraq before the war started!

• August 12 -- The Times Stands for “Common Decency” (Part II)
For the Times, that means being anti-death penalty. A headline reads: “Executions versus society’s standards of decency.”
