Several prominent liberal newspapers have weighed in with critical editorials on the Associated Press story that Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid failed to disclose a real estate deal in which he made a $700,000 profit, including the Washington Post ("Mr. Reid's Nondisclosure [1]"), the Philadelphia Inquirer ("Practice What You Preach [2]"), and the Atlanta Journal-Constitution ("Sen. Reid Should Look in Mirror First [3]").



The Times editorial page for Friday has...nothing. Well, it does include an undeniably urgent editorial on Hong Kong's average air pollution levels.



Turning to the news pages, there wasn't a follow-up to Philip Shenon's lame story [4], headlined in classic don't-read-this language, "Senator Offers to Amend Financial Forms."
