NYTIMES MELTDOWN: DOWD LASHES OUT IN SCATHING PERSONAL ATTACK ON MILLER

I saw a DT version of the NYTIMES today, and read Dowd (I got a tip earlier in the day that it was a "hot" column). BOY WUZZIT! THERE WAS ONLY ONE POINT TO THE COLUMN: Dowd viciously attacking Judith Miller. I would call it a one-sided cat-fight only Dowd is way way way WAY too bitchy. Then again, maybe mentioning bitches and cat-fights in the same sentence as Maureen Dowd is an insult to dogs and cats everywhere!

Anyhow.... HOW BIZARRE IZZIT THAT A NYTIMES COLUMNIST IS ATTACKING ONE OF ITS STAR REPORTERS (on the same day she is attacked by its managing editor, Keller)!?!?


There is only one explanation: The NYTIMES has begun to MELTDOWN! Don't believe me!? Well, imagine if - at NRO - Jonah Goldberg viciously attacked KJ Lopez. IMPOSSIBLE YOU SAY!? Right. And now you've got an inkling of how weird this really is. There might be another partial explanation: Dowd - like Krugman and Herbert and Keller and the rest of the NYTIMES - has no shame. Like the rest of the Left!

(MEMEORANDUM has a round-up: Jeff Jarvis / BuzzMachine:Dowd v. Miller; The Huffington Post, Captain's Quarters and Instapundit.com .) More HERE (hat tip Memeorandum.)

SUNDAY UPDATE: On MTP today, Frank Rich admitted that the NYTIMES is in disarray and in a crisis. SO PINCH: whattyathink is the remedy.... moving FURTHER TO THE LEFT!?!?!?
