Good for the Gander?

Matt Drudge has reported that the New York Times intends to slam the writers of the book "Her Way":

KILL THIS BOOK: NYT REVIEW TRASHES HILLARY BIO -- WRITTEN BY LEGENDARY NYT REPORTERS!

Mon Jun 04 2007 19:22:47

Editors of the NEW YORK TIMES are set to publish a highly-critical review of a book written by famed NEW YORK TIMES reporters, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.

In 'HER WAY', Jeff Gerth and Don Van Natta Jr. have written what will become mandatory reading for Clinton's opponents. "The book is almost uniformly negative and overly focused on what they consider the Clintons' scandalous past and the darker aspects of Hillary Clinton's personality... The evidence of such a pact -- interviews that have already been challenged in the press -- is less than convincing," writes Robert Dallek in a review set for the paper. "Carl Bernstein, the veteran journalist of Woodward-and-Bernstein Watergate fame, presents a more balanced and convincing picture of Clinton in his competing biography." Dallek slams: "Gerth and Van Natta seem to detect no angels in Clinton's nature whatsoever, much less better ones, and the result is a one-sided figure who never quite springs to life or feels truly authentic."

Now we all know, (givin the Clinton's history), if this was written about the Bush's it would be considered pulitzer material by the New Joke Times.
