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.

Stealing
Aaron Swartz - Downloading Isn't
Stealing
01/09/2004 10:12 PMThe New York Times
Upfront asked me to contribute a short piece to a
point/counterpoint they were having on download. (I would defend
downloading, of course.) I thought I managed to write a pretty good
piece, especially for its size and audience, in a couple days. But
then I found out my piece was cut because the Times had decided not to
tell kids to break the law. So, from the graveyard, here it is.
Stealing is wrong. But downloading isn’t stealing. If I
shoplift an album from my local record store, no one else can buy it.
But when I download a song, no one loses it and another person gets
it. There’s no ethical problem.
Music companies blame a fifteen percent drop in sales since 2000 on
downloading. But over the same period, there was a recession, a price
hike, a 25% cut in new releases, and a lack of popular new artists.
Factoring all that in, maybe downloading increases sales. And 90% of
the catalog of the major labels isn’t for sale anymore. The
Internet is the only way to hear this music.
Even if downloading did hurt sales, that doesn’t make it
unethical. Libraries and video stores (neither of which pay per
rental) hurt sales too. Is it unethical to use them?
Downloading may be illegal. But 60 million people used Napster and
only 50 million voted for Bush or Gore. We live in a democracy. If the
people want to share files then the law should be changed to let
them.
And there’s a fair way to change it. A Harvard professor
found that a $60/yr. charge for broadband users would make up for all
lost revenues. The government would give it to the affected artists
and, in return, make downloading legal, sparking easier-to-use systems
and more shared music. The artists get more money and you get more
music. What’s unethical about that?
