Linda Greenhouse’s Hatchet Job On Justice Scalia
In a vitriolic column employing the very style for which she attacks Justice Anonin Scalia, Linda Greenhouse repeats the old banal “bad-boy” narrative of a long hostile media. This unanswered charge is misleading in the extreme.
Scalia is one of my favorite justices, along with Thomas, Roberts and Alito. Linda Greenhouse is a professional anti-conservative. She’s been doing this for decades on PBS. If you place her at table with a lone conservative, she and the other libs tone down their rhetoric, but if it’s a table of all liberals, she and Nina Totenberg and Cokie Roberts and Gwen Ifel and Gloria Borger and Cynthia Tucker have a anti-conservative party.
