Searching for The New York Times
r.jimenezz writes "Adam L. Penenberg, an assistant professor at New York University, has written an interesting piece over at Wired about the contrast between the New York Times' relevance in the real world and the dismal rankings it gets in modern search engines' results. Penenberg discusses some very interesting ideas about opening up the Times digital archive and the impact this would have on its cyber presence."
Ah, so this is a police state? I must say, I like it. Lots to talks about, open dialog about disagreements, utter maniacs like George Soroes getting lots of influence -- not bad.
So, beyond the misapplication of terms, you do raise a good point, why would the world care about domestic politics in the US? They haven't gone over the UN's impotent head in almost a year now! Nope... no reason to keep an eye on the US... or France... or Britian... and as an American I sure don't care a lick about what goes on in Canada! I mean, who cares what our largest trading parter does!
Further more, given how unbiased and accurate the NY Times has become, I'm sure it's a great source to consult! Just consider the accurate, fair, balanced, and just visionary reporting they NY Times has brouth us over the years! Mark Levin has an excellent article on this quality publication.
