The Patriot Post® · New York Times Again Proves Why It's Untrustworthy

The New York Times wrote an editorial on Barack Obama’s trip to Alaska this week. The piece, titled “Mr. Obama’s Urgent Arctic Message,” was accompanied by a photo of Margerie Glacier, ostensibly to demonstrate the magnitude of the state’s receding ice. One small problem: That particular glacier isn’t receding at all. Writing for the National Park Service, Dr. Daniel E. Lawson says Margerie Glacier “has been advancing about 30 feet per year for the past couple of decades.” To be clear, other glaciers are melting. But for a newspaper that prides itself in supposed journalistic integrity, you’d think it would research basic information.
