Can I just say “wow” again?

The subject line is from the venerable newspaper of record, the NYTimes, on Steven Vincent. (From yesterday’s main story on his murder.)

I know it’s not shocking, but you can’t help but think if reporters weren’t afraid to talk about Islamic fascism/murderous Islamists–however you want to put it–we’d be more further along in this whole effort than we are. And I mean reporters. The NYTimes published the piece that likely was what got Steven killed in their commentary section. Why wasn’t the Times telling that story–about Baathist police in Basra–on their reporting pages?
