SPT "In the Know" on Douglas Feith

My local newspaper, The St. Petersburg Times, came up with a cute little jingle some time ago. "In the know, in the Times, whoa whoa whoa whoa" or something to that effect set to music. The idea, of course, is that reading the Times gives you the information you need to know, such as the information in Douglas Feith's recent book on the manner in which decisions about the Iraq War were made.

Well, apparently not. Though the pathetic search feature at the Times cannot be discounted as part of the problem. Search for "Feith" and the most recent story mentioning Feith was from Dec. 2007, before Feith's book was published.

To its credit(?) the Times' search engine doesn't have anything this year for "McClellan" either.

In the know, baby.
