today's TIMES has a front-page story about how Israel's harsh treatment of
Arabs is mellowing. They never mentioned this harsh treatment, as far as I
can tell, until it started (slowly) going away. That's the NYT!

Frankly, it's best to get news from a variety of sources. If I had the time
& money, I'd subscribe to the LE MONDE/MANCHESTER GUARDIAN weekly...
