Seth Mnookin, contributor to New York Magazine, a former senior writer for Newsweek where he covered media, politics, and popular culture, and the author of The Panic Virus: A True Story of Medicine, Science, and Fear, looks at how The New York Times became "the last great paper standing," as discussed in this week's New York Magazine cover story.

Last great paper standing?
*cough*Guardian*cough*
The Jewish owners of the NY Times didn't write about the Holocaust while it was ocurring, because they didn't want to call attention to their religion.
How inconvenient that would have been!
Did Seth recount THAT story that permitted the paper to become "the last great paper standing" at that time history?
