I’ve been complaining about Linda Greenhouse’s biased reporting for years—long before I had a blog. Only someone who shares her progressive biases could read her “reports” without noticing how she skews the facts. See here for Michelle Malkin’s blog post about Greenhouse. Keep in mind that Greenhouse is not a columnist. She is a reporter. She covers law. Her job, qua reporter, is to be disinterested. She is nothing of the sort, and never has been.

Addendum: Please note that my complaint is different from Malkin’s. Malkin is troubled by (1) Greenhouse’s conflict of interest and (2) the fact that Greenhouse is a progressive activist. The conflict of interest is disturbing, but I don’t care what Greenhouse does on her own time. My concern is that she not let her ideology affect her reporting, which it clearly does. I’m concerned, in other words, about the integrity of journalism. Does anyone wonder why journalists are held in such low regard, when they can’t keep their personal opinions out of their reports?

Addendum 2: Here is one of my posts from 2004.
