<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>In a New York park, a young boy was attacked by a savage dog. A passer by happened to see that and came to the rescue. Having tackled the dog,he strangled it to death. A reporter for the New York Times was watching all this and took snap shots for a front page picture in the next days paper.Approaching our hero he says: "Your heroic feat shall be published in tomorrow's paper under the headline - Brave New Yorker rescues boy". "I'm not from New York" replied our brave hero. "Oh in that case we'll change the headline - Brave American rescues boy from savage dog". "I'm not American either" replied our brave hero. On being asked about who he really is? our hero replied "I'm a Pakistani". Well the next day the headline on the front page of The New York Times said: "Muslim Fundamentalist strangles dog to death in New York park. FBI investigating possible link to al-Qaeda."</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>That's my opinion on the newspaper, if you don't want to believe my evidence for it, then at least believe my opinion because it is not going to change unless I have reason to change it. Besides, I think I posted the link to it in Daily Stuph or Ruminations during the argument we had about racial profiling in 2001 if you remember it. The aritcle might not even be there anymore though.</div>

Well, I don't particularilly like the New York Times all that much either. They've been known for racism against Islamic people.

Well, it's hard to post a link to something read about 2 and a half years ago. It was within a couple of months after September 11th and I'm just writing from memory.
