To cite one example out of dozens, the NYT times article ''Hitting a Self-Destruct Button'' is 964 words.  Of these, 275 words are an interview with the creator of The Political Graveyard (TPG) and extracts from his website.{{cite news |last1=MARK LEIBOVICH |title=Hitting a Self-Destruct Button |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2006/10/01/weekinreview/01leib.html |accessdate=12 June 2018 |work=New York Times |date=1 October 2006 |quote=“You always seem to have politicians doing bizarrely self-destructive things, especially involving sex,” says Lawrence Kestenbaum, creator of “Political Graveyard,” a history Web site that includes an exhaustive cataloging of transgressions by politicians.  Under the heading “Politicians Who Were Ever in Trouble or Disgrace,” the section contains 420 entries, in chronological order, many of them involving present and former members of Congress. Among the escapades:  • Barney Frank, Democrat of Massachusetts, was reprimanded when it was revealed that a male lover had been running a prostitution business out of his Capitol Hill apartment.  • Donald (Buz) Lukens, Republican of Ohio, who was convicted of a misdemeanor for having sex with a 16-year-old girl.  • Dan Crane, Republican of Illinois, and Gerry Studds, Democrat of Massachusetts, both of whom were censured by the House for having sexual relations with teenage pages — Mr. Crane with a female in 1980, Mr. Studds with a male in 1973.  The “Politicians Who Were Ever in Trouble or Disgrace” section comes with the devastatingly simple disclaimer “Very Incomplete!”  Mr. Kestenbaum says improprieties in the political realm tend to resonate more than in others. First, they tend to become public, necessitating apologies and, in many cases, resignations. He points out that if Mr. Foley were a purchasing manager at some store, he might actually keep his job.  “The political world tends to be very judgmental,” Mr. Kestenbaum says. This creates towering spectacles of dishonesty, famous last words that are often caught on tape. Mr. Clinton created the gold standard for this when he looked into a camera and indignantly declared, “I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Miss Lewinsky.”}}  Dude, that's the NYT relying on TPG for 29% of the article!  If the NYT covering something like this is not  and , then I don't know what is
