NY Times continues to mislead on Ricci

SUMMARY: The New York Times uncritically quoted the allegation that Sonia Sotomayor's position in Ricci v. DeStefano "brought racial quotas back as a national issue." The Times did not note that the 2nd Circuit ruled -- in an opinion written by one of Sotomayor's colleagues -- that precedent in interpreting an employment discrimination statute compelled the decision.
