NYT Runs Sidebar On Taconic Parkway Today. That's Three Weeks After Taconic Accident Kills 8.

Did it really take Lisa W. Foderaro three weeks to pull together this morning's Taconic Parkway sidebar about the road's dangers? Or is a slow-thinking editor to blame? Either way, it seems a little, you know, late.

Slow-thinking editor. Easy money.

Especially cynical since the discussion about the roadway's safety was quashed by how the driver was drunk and stoned, a fact much covered since then.

Three weeks after the Kennedy assassination, did we write of the danger of convertibles?

And then there's the problem that the Taconic is actually safer, at least according to one set of statistics.
