The Times seems to have finally found a form of regulation it doesn't like (other than those regulating marijuana or trade with Cuba). An editorial today appears to side with Mayor de Blasio in opposing state inspections of the city's homeless shelters: "Mr. de Blasio said the governor's vindictiveness had even extended earlier in the year to surprise state inspections of city homeless shelters."
"Even"! Given that the Times devoted vast space and editorial resources less than two years ago to the plight of Dasani, an 11 year old who lived in a fetid city homeless shelter in Brooklyn, the idea that the Times would now be siding with the mayor against the governor's efforts to exercise oversight in this area is astonishing.
