Humor at National Review

We don't normally think of the National Review as a source of humor. They made an exception in mid-June with an article entitled:

Communique from NYTAZ

This is satire based on the hyper-progressive backflips the New York Times has recently engaged in: firing editors, apologizing for OpEds already published, hiring known racists, and waxing nostalgic for communism.

Of course, by the time you read this, they may have already turned intended hyperbole into ghastly reality. Ed Driscoll, the Instapundit regular who provided the link, reminds us of Muggeridge's Law:

We live in an age in which it is no longer possible to be funny. There is nothing you can imagine, no matter how ludicrous, that will not promptly be enacted before your very eyes, probably by someone well known.

The NYT is reasonably well known, and apparently knows no limits on the left.
