Default Rage or not?

http://www.nytimes.com/2012/06/12/bu...road.html?_r=2

An interesting discussion.
Is giving a sideways look considered RAGE now?
Sort of like hate crimes. Statistics can be made to read anything according to an agenda.

The article being NYT, you can bet there is an agenda, too. Oh, how the Mighty have fallen. Pinch isnt what Punch was

A complete lack of credibility has almost completely killed the Old Grey Lady.

Supermarket tabloids frequently beat it to the punch on real news, and it isn't because the NYT lacks the manpower.

What are you talking about? This is just an op-ed piece, arguing to cut down on fear-mongering by the government and the media for what the author sees as poorly interpreted statistics. Where's the innacurate reporting and liberal agenda exactly?
