I mean, seriously, NYT, this shithole has been making politics toxic for my entire 50 year old life. And you make him sound like a poor misunderstood grandpapa.

Anyway I’m glad NYT chose to write a puff piece on Stone so that the piece I’ve had in the works for a week on the really obvious reasons why Stone is in trouble will be news when I post it in 3 days.

Here's my non puff piece on what Mueller seems to be investigating. https://www.emptywheel.net/2018/08/11/like-a-rat-fucking-stone/ … Downside: Unlike the NYT I don't treat Stone as a sweet old "piratical trickster." Upside: I actually present information of use.

Another upside: Unlike NYT's stupid ass puff piece, I realize Stone is not a focus JUST bc he knew what Wikileaks was going to dump.

For some reason, I this to be the most interesting line in this piece; "Maggie Haberman contributed reporting."

A bit OT: If you need any more proof of society's incredibly sexist double standard: I have never seen Stone mocked for his looks, for how hard he tries despite his age, etc. I find him absolutely repulsive and just *know* if he were a woman that would be the lead.

Most ratfuckers break the law...It's a matter of getting caught for something bad enough from which they can't slither away - Their connections or their personal "importance" isn't quite enough

"Scrapper" is a remarkably generous word to describe this guy. Why would NYT bend over backwards like this to be so gentle with Stone?
