'Times' Not Changing, Still Loves the Hawks?

Typically fine Margaret Sullivan commentary (though I'd go a bit farther) on NYT still relying on hawks and unnamed sources for much of news coverage, and guest  punditry, on Iraq, even today.  This almost got us into Syria a year ago.  They claim to have "learned lessons" of 2003, and it does show sometimes, but at other times you have to wonder--after all they still employ, and use on front-page, Michael Gordon.   For backdrop, see my aptly-titled book on Iraq and the media, "So Wrong for So Long."
