Shot: New York Times Reporter Attacks Koch Bros., Fails to Disclose Conflicts of Interest:

Indeed, the Sulzberger family, which owns the majority stake in the Times, has far more to answer for regarding the paper’s coverage of the Holocaust than the Koch brothers’s father does for doing a business deal in Germany in 1933. Faced with a slew of criticism, Confessore published the follow-up “Koch Executive Disputes Book’s Account of Founder’s Role in Nazi Refinery.” The when-did-you-stop-beating-your-wife headline is a nice touch for what is passive-voiced garble that doesn’t quite concede the premise of the original article was absurd.

Yet, still missing from any of this is any disclosure from Confessore that Mayer has a very close relationship with the Times. Confessore initially made it sound as if he got his hands on Mayer’s not-yet-published book and the scandalous revelations therein by dumpster diving or through some great effort.
