It still links to the New York Post...

It's kind of easy to write up anything with "according to sources".

Is the NY post a decent paper or trash? Not familiar with it.

[The Brain]

Trash.

[The Minsky Moment]

Mostly trashy but some good reporters.  A cut above the Brit tabloids or Bild.

From the stories that are coming out, it sounds as though he was going through his days hitting on almost every woman he came into contact with. It sounds hard to believe.

Probably the worst in the US, on par with most European papers (which it openly apes).

That's not saying much. 

[DGuller]

It's a tabloid owned by Rupert Murdoch.  Does much need to be said?

[Gups]

Didn't Murdoch load the staff with Sun hacks?

I don't think Euro tabloids are all that bad. The British ones are the market leaders in hypocrisy and trash.

If the New York Post had a headline that the sky was blue, I would look outside just to check.

A few years back I was on trial in a case that involved the financial sector.  The Post covered the case along with various other papers including the qualities (NYT, WSJ).  Overall I would say the Post's coverage was the most accurate.  That is just one anecdote and obviously there are other issues with the Post editorially that would cause me not to prefer it to the qualities.  But the experience did raise the Post somewhat in my estimation.

Bernie?

Huh. You could not blame the woman or her family for taking a pay-off, even if it would be a travesty of justice.

A million dollars to shut up and make this go away, for a family in utter poverty? Seems like a no brainer to me...

[The Minsky Moment]

Bernie?

Bernie was repped by Ike Sorkin, who is a tad older than me.

Of course the trashy paper is more at home in the sleazy sectors.
