An Interesting MSM Editorial Comparison

Today the Boston Globe and the Wall Street Journal both editorialized on the Supreme Courts Ricci decision and its effect on race relations in this country. Completely different takes, as you would expect.

Evaluate the tone of the writers. Is it my bias that reads many global assumptions and great negativity into the Globe and more factual presentations of both sides and a neutral tone in the Journal?

Let me know if you think it is my bias!

I do have to comment on the last paragraph of the Globe:


"What’s clear is that federal judges, like Americans as a whole, are still struggling with how best to steer the country toward a time when racial preferences are no longer necessary - while recognizing that, for now, they still are. Approaches like New Haven’s don’t help. Neither do responses such as yesterday’s Supreme Court decision."


Is this what we want from our federal judges? I thought that "steerring the country" was the legislatures job! Shall we eliminate Justice blindfolded? It is obvious the Globe believes we should - and it will cost us dearly if we let the left do this!
