The Times sets its WMD record straight
The Times sets its WMD record straight
05/26/2004 02:59 AMStay up late on the West Coast and you get tomorrow's New York Times
today. Tonight brings a long
"From the Editors" note that reconsiders the WMD
hysteria that marked some of its prewar coverage and marred its
reputation:
"It is still possible that chemical or biological weapons will be
unearthed in Iraq, but in this case it looks as if we, along with the
administration, were taken in. And until now we have not reported that
to our readers."
"We consider the story of Iraq's weapons, and of the pattern of
misinformation, to be unfinished business. And we fully intend to
continue aggressive reporting aimed at setting the record straight."
For the Times, this transparency thing is still very new. And
admitting that major stories that helped launch an ill-conceived war
were at best careless and at worst fraudulent is a painful thing for
any journalistic enterprise. But admitting mistakes is the first step
toward preventing their recurrence.
Now if we can only get our president to understand that principle.
Instead, here he is solemnly announcing, in his speech last night,
that "Iraq is now the central front in the war on terror." Sure it is.
How did it get that way? It wasn't such a front before we invaded. Our
mistakes -- Bush's mistakes -- opened another front for bin Ladenism
to exploit.
Will Saletan in Slate has a smart deconstruction of
the strange rhetoric in Bush's speech that omits any acknowledgment of
missteps and all reference to his own agency in the unfolding Iraq
disaster. Bush hasn't done anything; instead, "history is moving." It
would be funny if there weren't so many lives already lost, and more
on the line.
