From the New York Sun.
[T]he publisher of the New York Times, Arthur Sulzberger Jr., had sold his Upper West Side apartment to his wife for $3.25 million for what a Times spokeswoman described as “estate-planning purposes.” …[T]he Times editorialized on April 15, 2005, that “The only thing driving the push for repealing the estate tax is ideology. It sure isn’t sound tax policy.” We look forward to reading an editorial in the Times about what’s “sound” in a tax law that drives a man to sell the apartment he lives in to his wife just to minimize taxes.
