The average reader of the NY Times probably skims most articles. I tend to skip anything involving lifestyle, a feature of every Thursday’s edition, with its sections on style and home. For someone in the garment trade, the style section is a must, needless to say. That being said, they probably couldn’t miss the lead articles that appear customarily on the upper center and left hand corner of the front page. There—today—you will see articles titled “Obama Faces Barrier in his Own Party on Syria” and to its left “Rebel Brutality in Syria Posing Dilemma in West”. Clearly, the two are related, although I have to chuckle about the idea of “rebel brutality” posing a problem to “the West”.
