when the Times first caught me was a Saturday edition I found in an airport. Beyond the "news" is a page long article about a peasant's market in rural China. The story focused on a herbal medicine man there. It was completely pointless, yet utterly fascinating. All i could think was there was no way it would have appeared in the Detroit News or FreePress. I think they rely on wire service for DC news.
