The New York Times
...which still proudly displays Walter Duranty's Pulitzer prize...
report that the Republican presidential nominee reported a $916 million loss in 1995 -- and could have gone 18 years without paying federal income taxes as a result -- has set off new questions about Trump's refusal to release his tax returns and his business acumen.
| The Times is being disingenuous, as is CNN, given that Breitbart reports the Times paid no taxes in 2014 by doing a clever bit of legal accounting. Likewise, Mr. Trump applied the tax laws to his situation, which is why he has repeatedly said that the IRS always audits him -- and he is always approved. |

Another Jeremiah S. Black....
