-Caveat Lector- NEW YORK -- For Newsweek (6 ix '99, 'Do We Care About Truth?'), the distinguished economics columnist Robert J. Samuelson considers the debate on the eugenic results of abortion which the New York Times took two weeks to report (McDNLs August '99). Samuelson agrees with Chicago biodiversity polymath Steve Sailer that some of America's crime decrease in the 1990's may instead have been due to inner-city addicts of crack cocaine having finished each other off in orgies of Black-on-Black shootings in the 1980's. But Samuelson is chiefly concerned with the East Coast media's repression of the story: "The Chicago Tribune broke the study with a front-page story, but most coverage has been minimal. The Washington Post ran a short story on page A-9; The New York Times story (on A-14) didn't appear for almost two weeks." Samuelson concludes: "....it's delusional to pretend that something as common as abortion is without social consequences. We cannot find them unless we look. The trouble is that in modern America people often won't search for what they fear they might find." DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list.
