Economist and Weekly Standard contributing editor Irwin Stelzer notes that the New York Times managed "to bury the good news about weekend sales (up 22 percent over last year) by reporting instead, on page 1 of the business section, that mall-based specialty stores are losing out to big stores like Wal-Mart that are based outside of malls."

All the negative Bush news that's fit to print continues.
