The New York Times is so in the tank for Obama over Libya, it's scary Oct 15th 2012, 17:55 Radio talk show host and Fox News contributor Laura Ingraham was right when she confronted New York Times political reporter Jeff Zeleny on the set of "Fox News Sunday" this weekend: "I would hope that the New York Times, as they camped outside of Scooter Libby's house during the whole Valerie Plame thing -- are you guys camped out of the Susan Rice residence?" She said, "This is ridiculous and I think the press is partly culpable here." And she wasn't alone in voicing that sentiment. Fox News' Brit Hume agreed with Ingraham during the same roundtable discussion on the program Sunday.  "I do think Laura's made a good point. It shouldn't be up to the campaign and candidates to try to get to the bottom of this before Election Day. This should be a job for all the good investigative reporters in the media to be out on this story, investigative teams such as they are should be all over this. This does have, it seems to me, an extremely strong scent of cover-up and it does looks like that it was engineered in some way. There's just something about those five appearances on a Sunday with a story that they had to know was off base. That doesn't smell right and ought to be exposed." Both Ingraham and Hume are 100 percent right. Yet, if you look at the front page of the New York Times on Monday morning (view front page here), Libya is nowhere to be found. Yet, the Benghazi attack on 9/11 that killed our ambassador and three others was the topic of every Sunday talk show this weekend. The New York Times still thinks of itself as "the paper of record"; it's the one paper every network newscast consults on a daily basis. So why isn't Libya on the front page Monday morning?  Here's why: The Times is so in the tank for the Obama administration it's scary. I've never seen anything like it. They are doing everything they can to protect the Obama White House over this disaster. When are Republicans -- and all Americans -- going to call on the press to look into this outrage?
