I guess considering Mark Levin's book "Liberty and Tyranny: A Conservative Manifesto" is the top-selling book in the nation, the New York Times can't completely ignore it.
But they manage to pull off a dubious feat here. They "review" his book by completely ignoring his book. Rather than, you know, actually reading the book, what do they do instead? Why, they go to a fan website and lift comments.
Unreal. This isn't just the laziest display of journalism I've seen in recent years, it's just beneath contempt, another example that the mainstream media is totally absent any semblance of responsibility. Maybe instead of sneering condescension they could actually examine why Levin wrote the book, why it's so popular and why people are lining up around the country to get autographed copies.
No, they'd rather diminish Levin's credibility by cribbing comments from a website.
Just a disgrace.
Would it be too much to find someone who's actually read Levin's book to do a review of it? It can't be that hard, considering there are hundreds of thousands of people who've bought it already.
H/T Hot Air headlines.
