Somewhat delayed, but I wanted to 'enblog' a curious little text fragment, encountered in the famous newspaper the NYT. This phrase occurs: ("the Washington political and media establishment"): Well, I guess you had to be there! You aren't getting it yet but you'll get it. Later. First you have to put up with the original idea for the post. I wanted to summarize every story that occurred there, on one particular front page of aforesaid famous daily document. So, the motive was just to sort of document a particular front page from said organ. Sort of quick way, too so it should go rather quickly and then you get to the curious little text fragment.
_______
1)Food Today, but None Tomorrow
_______
2)$450 billion in defense cuts (in the U.S.)
_______
3)New York was planned out in 1811; but, there was farmland at 84th St. in 1879.
"It was in many respects a heartless plan."
_______
4)And, as for the campaign....
it is only on the last day of the campaign, says the great American propaganda organ, the N.Y. Times, that the "weight" of the "establishment", the elites, has landed. It took them that long? Well, what about it? Who does the establishment, or the elite, favor? Well just tell me! The article makes no further mention of "the Washington political and media establishment." Weird. The concept just evaporates from article, instead of the writer returning to it at the end. (check it for yourself; it was a few days ago; I told you how the front page looks so you can find it)
Until you realize that that is what the N.Y. Times is. The concept of "the Washington political and media establishment" is there. It somehow got in. The concept of a "Washington political and media establishment" showing up to influence the election somehow got in. Maybe this was because they just cannot help themselves sometimes. Maybe it was because it says "Washington" rather than "New York." And this phrase about the "political and media establishment" thing was spot on. Here is the NYT admitting that such a thing exists. But we have to also consider that the political and media establishment, which is what we are reading, in the form of the New York Times, is not about to give you access to what it is thinking. That's not how it works. Of course not. It is the New York -and not D.C. -political establishment. Neither the political establishment nor a "media establishment" paper like the NYT is going to signal its moves. And, thus, the admission of the nature of things has nowhere to go and this admission, about the "political...establishment", so easy to spot, in column one, is floating alone, as it were, on the page. The theme is not returned to again in the article.
I just wanted to say that. That is my whole purpose, just to point to say that. In case some of you missed it. The political and media establishment admitting it exists!

Somewhat delayed but I wanted to 'enblog' this curious text I found which is from the NYT. This phrase occurs in the newspaper: ("the Washington political and media establishment"): This original idea was to start out by summarising all four front page articles from that edition of the NYT, but in quick summary....
