In regards to the DI "cleaning up its act."

See the DI's coverage of the recent visit from Louis Farrakhan:

There are lots of references to his being a controversial figure, but in neither story does the reporter mention just why he's controverial--nothing at all about his blatant and numerous anti-Semitic remarks.

If this is the DI's idea of being "even-handed," I'd hate to see it being biased.
