From: "Gary Britt" 

Many newspapers, many very large newspapers, the New York Times for one I
believe have printed many vile and racist stereotype cartoons of Clarence
Thomas and Condi Rice.  The New York Times defending the expenditure of
public money on the exhibition of crucifixes in urine and paintings of the
virgin Mary covered in shit (literally shit).

So you are completely wrong on this one.
