NYTimes editors cover Bush



This morning on the electronic NY Times there was a report that a US
ally, a Sunni Arab leader, Sheik Abdul Sattar Buzaigh al-Rishawi has
been killed in Anbar province.  Bush met the Sheik on his recent
visit, and the Times showed a photo of a grinning Bush shaking hands
with him.

The photo seems to have been dropped.  It wasn't a good visual of the
success Bush is peddling.  The Times got in line, probably didn't
even need a call from the White House to realize its duty.
