WSJ: In-Justice

Right-wing publications have alleged wrong-doing at the Department of Justice for some months. COTTonLINE has refrained from commenting on these as we view the sources as more opinion than news.

On the other hand, we view The Wall Street Journal as a straight-ahead news source. See what they say about it:
Something is very rotten at the U.S. Department of Justice. No other reasonable conclusion can be drawn from an independent report on the 2008 prosecution of then-Senator Ted Stevens.
Notice the date, they're criticizing the Bush administration's Department of Justice. Obama didn't take office until January, 2009.

This report raises the likelihood that the Justice Department under Obama appointee Holder has continued to be less-than-just, as a number of bloggers and conservative sources have alleged.
