@jacklgoldsmith Yes. His language was pretty intemperate. Did you see @Sulliview's response?http://publiceditor.blogs.nytimes.com/2015/01/16/was-the-times-disgusting-to-grant-anonymity-to-an-unnamed-al-qaeda-source/?module=BlogPost-Title&version=Blog%20Main&contentCollection=Opinion&action=Click&pgtype=Blogs®ion=Body&_r=0 …
@jacklgoldsmith So WITHOUT reaching out to multiple sides, NYT relapses to become a propaganda organ, which doesn't serve US interests.

@emptywheel That is way too simplistic. It has many sources contra USG other than AQAP. -
@jacklgoldsmith The reporting on Yemen, absent reporting FROM Yemen, has been horrible. Dangerously horrible. So you need secure channels -
@emptywheel Do you need also to give the enemy a public mouthpiece? What think u of the criminal child abuse gang analogy in my post? -
@jacklgoldsmith You keep using this word "mouthpiece." I don't think it means what you think it means. -
@emptywheel Ok, bullhorn. -
@jacklgoldsmith Finally, they HAVE a bullhorn, w/ or w/o NYT. Is it wrong for@intelwire or@azelin to tell us what AQAP saying online? -
@emptywheel I don't think I will convince you. Not the 1st time. But Tis a useful debate and useful for public to know NYT practice.
