Class — Not the Gray Lady's Strong Suit
Charles F. Burlingame III was the captain of American Airlines Flight 77, which Muslim terrorists crashed into the Pentagon on September 11. Tragically, his daughter Wendy Burlingame was recently found dead under suspicious circumstances. The New York Times thoughtfully informed some of her family members:
Debra A. Burlingame, Ms. Burlingame's aunt, was reached at home last night before she even knew of her niece's death. She burst into tears on the phone and would not comment further. Ms. Burlingame's mother, Nancy Perfect, was also reached at home last night. She, too, declined to discuss her daughter's death.
Vultures have shown more class.
On a tip from Wiggins.

Anything for a scoop, you know. I wonder if they would have done the same had one of the Jersey Girls been this poor girl's relative instead of Debra Burlingame?

When you read the article it makes it sound like Captain Burlingame just slammed his plane into the World Trade Center for no reason.
Then these slugs call Ms. Debra Burlingame and she doesn't even know yet?
I think the terrorists hit the wrong target in New York on September 11th. It should have been the NYTs.

How long until the NYT's is out of business? The shareholders must be so proud....

Thanks for commenting on the journalistic business when you have no idea of reporting or honest work yourself! Do you just run this Web site because nobody would pay you to write batshit insanity for their publication? Why don't you go write press releases for Focus on the Family - that way you'd be part of something the rest of the world is already ignoring.

Don't feed the trolls, remember, this person is trying to steer the topic away from the NYT article.
That's what liberals do, they can't argue, they know they're wrong. So they shift and attack, shift and attack. If you're losing an argument, change it!
I'd love to hear what this troll has to say about the actual topic being discussed here, but it ain't a-going to happen.
