Jill Abramson - Brain Dead

Answer: Jill Abramson
Question—  "What kind of person could possibly be so stupendously stupid as to have thought Barack Obama was a good idea?"


The executive editor of the New York Times is disputing an accusation of liberal bias made by her very own public editor, Arthur Brisbane.

In his final column for the Times, Brisbane wrote that his fellow staffers "share a kind of political and cultural progressivism" that "virtually bleeds through the fabric of The Times." Brisbane even argued that Times reporters approached some liberal issues, like gay marriage and the Occupy movement, "more like causes than news subjects."

Res Ipsa LoquitorBut Times executive editor Jill Abramson says she disagrees with Brisbane's "sweeping conclusions." 

Drudge beat me to it, but this is just too delicious not to have in my archives.
