LAT trashes Wolfowitz

In a front page piece in today's paper, reporter Nicole Gaouette passes along to readers a flock of complaints about Wolfowitz from unnamed current or former bank employees. The bank employs about 10,000. Gaouette doesn't say how many she interviewed, and it isn't clear how many different unnmamed people she's quoting. She includes some pro-Wolfowitz quotes and other information but the thrust of the piece is to make Wolfowitz look bad. Why does the LAT take sides on this? Because Wolfowitz is one of the "neocons" who got the U.S. into the Iraq war.
