New York Times

I don't understand why I am still surprised by crap I read in the main stream media such as the NYT, but I was again this morning when I opened their web site. The first story dealt with the fact that prisoners serving life terms were dying in prison. Duh. The article itself gave an example of a cold-blooded killer who was still in prison despite having gotten a high school diploma while in prison. The article is here if you can read it without sobbing in sympathy for the poor mistreated inmates.
