NY Post Gets it Right

While we are often raking the New York Post over the coals here at Get Real for the paper’s habit of ignoring facts inconvenient to the owner’s bias or (especially on the editorial page) just plain making things up, this Monday morning we salute you!

The whole “steroids/performance enhancers in sports story” is one we’ll get to soon — it’s rich in muddled thinking and misleading outrage. And don’t get us started about what’s happening to poor Michael “bong hit” Phelps for doing what the last three (at least!) Presidents have done. If it didn’t ruin their status as “role models” why should it effect the star swimmer that way. But I digress.

For now let’s just revel in the perfect Post headline — a gem of a lede that says it all.
