Clark Hoyt:: NYT “owes readers more proof than The Times was able to provide.”

From his Sunday NYT column:

    A newspaper cannot begin a story about the all-but-certain Republican presidential nominee with the suggestion of an extramarital affair with an attractive lobbyist 31 years his junior and expect readers to focus on anything other than what most of them did. And if a newspaper is going to suggest an improper sexual affair, whether editors think that is the central point or not, it owes readers more proof than The Times was able to provide.

Howie Kurtz also looks at the story in his WaPo piece today.

Jay Rosen also reflects on Clark Hoyt’s column.
