The reason this is scandalous is because, like Safire said, the Times hasa relatively strict editing process (doesn't make them perfect, but comparatively speaking, not bad).

I recall reading an article on foxnews.com about Ralph Nader and the PIRG organization. It was full of half-truths, not to mention blatant lies. Turns out, they picked this up from some bob's homepage dork who works for CFACT (a group dedicated to ending PIRG). Where is the integrity in that? Nobody cared that this was on the Fox site, because many people assume that they are crappy, tabloid, entertainment derived "journalism." The Times sets higher standards, thus, they get nailed hard for this.
