Another perspective on The New Yorker article on Clark

This might have been posted before, but I couldn't find it so here it is.

Boyer Plate
Who is New Yorker staff writer Peter Boyer -- and why he is after Wesley Clark?

(snip)

"Boyer, of course, is entitled to his isolationist views, and if The New Yorker wants to incorporate conservative perspectives into its editorial mix then it has every right do so. But neither Boyer nor his editors should pass off the Clark profile as the work of an unbiased journalist."

2. Between Slate's article correcting the actual article and

and the Prospect article "outing" it's author, I believe that the New Yorker article can now be put to bed....nite.

We'll just call it a "Smear" job, and leave it at that!
