3. The Times endorsed Bush because Blethen made them
They're editorial board was unanimous for Gore, but it was overruled by Blethen solely because of inheritence tax issues.

I am not saying that that was the right thing to do (it certainly WASN'T), but it isn't right to condemn or imply alterior motives when a newspaper prints research from a University of Washington study solely because their editorial board was forcibly overruled four years ago (as far as I can tell, the only time this has happened).

Can you not take time to look at the whole rather than focusing on a one time flaw?
