Regardless of whether Gary Rosenblatt agrees or disagrees with President Obama’s reaction to recent actions and statements by Netanyahu, it is in no way fair to hold him accountable for what Mr. Rosenblatt terms “relentless coverage in the mainstream press,” resulting in “a steady stream of front-page stories” (“Sharing The Blame As Fault Lines Deepen,” Editor’s column, March 27).
This type of sophomoric histrionics is not Obama’s doing and is the reason Jon Stewart rightfully refers to the media as “jackals.”
Editor’s Note: The column did not hold President Obama accountable for The New York Times’ coverage.
