Behind the Scenes At the Times

The Nose on your Face has an exclusive transcript of a New York Times’ brainstorming session following the McCain-Iseman Scandal

Read it here.

Here’s an excerpt

Bill Keller, NY Times Editor: Can we verify any of this?
Paul Krugman: Well, it depends on how you’re defining “verify.” If it’s the antiquated “prove” definition, not exactly. However, when you take “verify” in its modern, more progressive definition, we feel pretty comfortable that its true.
Keller: Well, we are progressive.
Krugman: With a capital “P,”chief.
In case it’s not obvious it’s a parody.
