Dean Baker Versus The Papers

Who should be considered the legitimate "serious person", Dean Baker or a random dickhead who mans The Times or The Post?  Exactly.  The always trenchant Baker slaps around The Amazon Post here on disability--but not the Post's intellectual infirmity!--and visits the same beating on The New York Times over the vile cuts to Food Stamps that the Republicans are pushing.  Baker is exactly the sort of public intellectual who should be widely heard and is not because the establishment media has no interest in broadcasting anything resembling truth or reason.  Yay America!
