Charlie Rose interviewed Bill Keller, and correctly so; all editorial decisions go through him. He stated as much, though a bit evasive and hesitantly, IMO.
The thing about the NYT is if they had so many scandals of late with purely doctored news stories, I'd be inclined to fully back their effort behind the "classified" story from last week. But whether liberal or conservative, I don't trust the media blindly in its intentions. It wouldn't surprise me the NYT published that story not just hastily, but to save some face in lieu of their internal strife.
As for an attack on the FOIA, I call it tit for tat - Bush vs. NYT. Though that's some pretty big tit for a whole lot of tat.
