I felt like Krugman was off base with this one. The Times has run several stories that Wall Street is donating bushels of money to the GOP for the current Administration's re-election. (This doesn't appear to be the usual give-to-both-sides-and-hedge-your-bets-deal.) They're very happy with all the tax cuts, lax regulation, and other "pro-business" policies under Bush. Krugman talks about patriotism and press intimidation but the fact is, the elite wants four more years of Bush.

I was thinking the same thing as I read the Krugman piece. Journalism is big business.
