NYT’s Chan Pens Two Puff Pieces to Offset Thursday’s ‘Obama Rejected at G-20′ Faux Pas
Don't go overboard with it, but have some pity on Sewell Chan at the New York Times. On Thursday evening online and in Friday's print edition, Chan was among three Times reporters who composed a report ripping President Obama's lack of results at the G-20 summit.
