The Internet is buzzing with the story of the NY Times writer, Sarah Boxer, and her article Pro-American Iraqi Blog Provokes Intrigue and Vitriol.
It’s an article about an Iraqi blogger who has said some very nice things about the American removal of Saddam from power in Iraq. He, and his two brothers operated a blog site called Iraq the Model.
The problem is, Sarah Boxer goes to agonizing lengths to imply that the Iraqi, who she identifies by his real name, is a CIA agent. In Iraq today, that instantly makes his a target of assassination. As you can appreciate, the Blogosphere did not take kindly to Ms. Boxer’s effort to have her subject killed.. Several bloggers wrote about this HERE, HERE and HERE.
NZ Bear then proceeded to create an hilarious parody of Boxer’s article that is a must-read, especially if you disdain the NY Times.
