Chronicle readers who don’t read the New York Times might have found Rick Casey’s column on James Baker from earlier this week interesting.
The New York Times article was better, though, not to mention more timely.
It’s not really clear why the Chronicle pays its metro/state columnist to rewrite stories he reads in the national press.
Then again, it’s also not really clear why the Chronicle pays its D.C. columnist to write about things he sees on C-SPAN.
The reinvention of the Chronicle still has a ways to go, it would seem, little slaps at the New York Times notwithstanding.
