Dishonesty - Noel Sheppard (NewsBusters) vs Krugman (NYTimes)

Noel Shepard takes excerpts from Krugman's article but never gives us the link to see for ourselves so here it is - NYTimes Op-Ed Columnist: Wisconsin Power Play By PAUL KRUGMAN Published: February 20, 2011

At least you know who said it with NewsBusters.org but a little more information by the author would be helpful - what do you think?

Krugman: 'Gov. Walker Trying to Make Wisconsin and America a Third-World-Style Oligarchy' Read more: http://newsbusters.org/blogs/noel-sheppard/2011/02/21/krugman-gov-walker-trying-make-wisconsin-and-america-third-world-styl#ixzz1N5SrJC8G

On top of those issues I know 2/21/2011 is not a long time ago but I did not notice this as over three months old and someone was recycling it on Twitter - I'm guilty of that sometimes when I think an issue should not be forgotten!  All the more important to report your sources and give the reader a chance to figure it out for themselves.  I should also mention Shepard referenced George Will in a link in this piece.  But the link was to another of his columns where you could see an embed from ABC News - nothing wrong with that but it does show he knows how to put links in stories!
